<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Carl, If you stretch it out as a dipole in the longest space avaliable, why not let the ends, about 15 ft each, droop down? The ends contribute much less to the radiation than does the center section. I've been doing this for yrs, in several locations. I suspect it's better than an inverted V, it keeps the more important center section at a higher elevation. YMMV 73, Al, W8UT
