For CQWW CW we are planning to use an 80m ¼ wl sloper
hanging from a
tower (24m+3m mast) with 14MHz yagi with insulated
elements (Cushcraft
X7) on top. The sloper leaves the tower at about 20m
(1/4 wl) from
ground. Both stations will be running a KW.

Should I be concerned with RX safety with this setup?
Any watch-outs?

You will be using bandpass filters, right? That should
be adequate protection. What you are doing is very
similar to what I have here, and it works ok. I
wouldn't try it without the bandpass filters, though.
