i tend to voltage feed my antennas, of course with a 5763 tamped down to
5 watts output RF in the shack has not been a problem.
 
i have a new location to operate in centerville ohio where my daughter
lives, and if i get a chance to operate a 160 meter contest there, i will
use my pullen mixer/BC453 set up and 5763 keyed final feeding an "S"
antenna, a half wave wire leading out the basement window to a tree and
then up the tree and out to another tree. the first section will be about
5 feet high, the vertical portion the height of the tree, with the center
hopefully exactly in the middle of the vertical portion, giving a
vertically polarized radiation component.
 
i think this was written up in the 1956 ARRL antenna
handbook...............
