-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stephen Hawkins Sent: Thursday, November 16, 2006 7:28 AM To: IRCA Mailing list Subject: [IRCA] serious antenna farm Gangue, This is a little off the BCB DX topic. At the end of October I operated the first half of a Ham Radio contest from a friends house. He has a farm here in central Iowa and lots of room for antennas. I drool everytime I go there. He has 18 towers. 2 x 80M 4 squares, and a 160M 4 square. Four Stacked mono-band yagis on rotatable towers for each band. Plus some fixed stacks. In the works is a second rotatable tower with stacked 4 x 40M yagis, that will be phased with the first rotatable tower with stacked 4 x 40M yagis. Plus 2 beverages in the summer, increased to 4 in the winter, when the crops have been harvested out of the way. A finished basement Ham Shack with a kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom for guest ops during contest weekends. When he has the other two beverages back up I am going to try some BCB DXing from there. I'll let you know how that works out. I will send photos to anyone interested. Let me know how fast your Internet connection is, so I don't choke it.
