BTW: I find that my Windom antenna works better on CW than on SSB. Could 
this the short and long halves of the antenna be the cause?

Well, yes, here's why! You'll find that if you switch to "ALT" in SSB the
Windom performance matches that on CW. Likewise, if you switch to "CW REV"
mode, the Windowm performance is down. This is of course, determined by the
polarity of your Windom feedline (whether the coax center or shield is
hooked to the longer side of the Windom). This effect can be equalized
slightly by using balanced feeders.
