Subject: Topband: sloping 1/2 wave dipole

wanted to ask the antenna guru"swhat they think abouy a
sloping dipole to get a little directional gain in a desired
direction as apposed to a 1/4 wave verticle ,it would be
suspended from a 135 ft.tower..tnxs for your input..John

I would try a half sloper first.  If it works...great, if it
doesn't then try the next idea.  My 160m half slopers work
great on transmit, but that doesn't apply to all locations
so I am told.
