Topband: Termination resistor for 160-80- Pennant antenna (Receiveonly)

[ROBERT HARMON]

KD9SV offers the transformer and 900 ohm resistor for the pennant antenna, ready to go, very inexpensive.  I am using his kit and works great.
It is stock number SV-PEN on his website:   http://www.radiobooks.com/
