Topband: 1/4 wave sloper..aka half sloper.

[Mark Robinson]

My sloper is fed at the 72 foot point on an 86 foot tower where the coax 
is grounded to the tower leg and with about 12 feet of mast above the 
tower ..  This wasn't enough on 160 and I added a 130 foot counterpoise 
wire which is connected to the tower leg where the coax is attached and 
goes out at about a 45 degree angle.
