Antennas:
160M - Inverted L
80M - 1/4 vertical and dipole at 55 feet
40M - Dipole at 70 feet (NE/SW) and dipole at 55 feet
20M - Extended Double Zepp at 70 feet, 2 loops at 60 feet
15M - Dipole at 50 feet, loop at 50 feet
10M - Dipole at 55 feet, loop at 50 feet
Carolina Windom for 40-10 at 60 feet

Hope to work you.
