Topband: Topband Conditions---MEH!

[Bob K6UJ]

You guys aren't instilling confidence in my 160 L antenna I am working on.  :-)  
Just my luck, retire and finally get to have some time to play with antennas more, putting up a 160L  
and the band goes blaaaaah !   hihi

Merry Christmas to all Top Banders !
