Don, How did you get your dipole up 110 feet? Is it strung between towers, or do you have some gigantic trees in your yard? It took me a long time just to get mine up 35-40 feet up in my trees using a slingshot-fishing reel combo.

It is about 110 ft. high, so the height somewhat compensates for the shortness of it on 160. I use a separate L-network to match the the quarterwave base-insulated vertical on 160, which is my main topband antenna. 73, Don K4KYV ______________________________________________________________ AMRadio mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected]
