Paul, And plus you have a BIG source of QRM right where you are, but once you get your ATU fixed, with a good filter you could use your tower as a receiving antenna after you drop power at sunset. Also, with your real estate, you could build some nice EWEs. Of course, you'd need some pretty hefty filtering to knock 1590 down to the point where it wouldn't overload a receiver (while you're on 1 kW). Almost makes me wish I had a two-stick station so I could phase them for receiving purposes.
