Hi Chuck

I'm using an inverted "L" on 160 and I like it really well.  I only run
100 watts on 160, but it seems to do OK for that power.  I have about 60
feet vertical and the rest horizontal between a couple of trees.  I have
quite an extensive radial system under it as the back 40 here is all
brush and timber.  73
