[TowerTalk] 43' verticals

[Dave Harmon]

Try the HY-Gain Hy-Tower.......I work Europe every night easily on 80mtrs.
No tuner....no coils...no caps.
Only a DXE ground plate for the radials and a DXE current balun at the base
of the antenna.
Oh....90 70' radials help a little too.
You can get one from http://www.wb0w.com/
Nice folks and MFJ will drop ship to you.
Call for a price.

Funny we just had this same hot topic on our local contesting club
reflector.

They might be better than what you had but IMHO they can't be very good for
80/160.

I wish there were some short miracle antennas for 80 and 160 so I could put
up some 4 squares easily.

Here is your answer:

The 43 ft vertical is discussed about 40% of the way down in the article.
