I dont understand the sudden urge or desire of some to suppress all
high angle radiation from an inverted L. It is well established that
even a low horizontal
dipole can work amazing amounts of DX on 160 when conditions allow
and
having both possibilities present in the L is a benefit.

I use two bi-directional beverage antennas. I am interested in
the I.C.E. 196. I know that they were temporarily suspending their
manufacturing due to the loss of their owner. Does anyone know if I.C.E.
has
started back up? If not, what does everyone else use for a receiver
frontend

Scott,
I use a front end saver. Homebrew from CQ Magazine, Feb 1997.
I think Far Circuits still sells a circuit board for that, but it's
a simple device to build, so perfboard will work too.

They are back up but not producing everything that they used to. A firm
that used to do much of the work for ICE is selling the products now.
There is a product called front end saver that is also available.
Google it.

Sorry, have a misconstrued topic sentence below, probably from not finishing
an edit of the sentence from a double negative. You can see that the topic
sentence is at odds with the details. Thanks to KM1H for pointing out the
error.

I build all my RX antennas with a relay in the transformer
box. The relay, which is powered through the coax, opens
the loop and shorts out the

Amazing high or amazing low?
