Topbanders,
Operators from VO and DL teamed up to go to Ile aux Marins, a small 
abandoned island just a few 100 meters from St.Pierre , FP . We are 
right now planning our antennas.

There is daily tourism on the island , so the antenna farm can not be 
big. The location is about 80m from the sea, so we hope for good take 
off angles.

For RX, we plan to use BOGs. How long should we make them?  Do you think 
this may work?

For TX on 160m and 80m we plan to install inV L's with radials on the 
ground. What number do you suggest minimum near salt water?

40m vertical , 30m vertical: Will we be better off with VP2E's or with 
verticals and radial field? What do you think? Any hint welcome.

Other bands: Hexbeam.
