Hi.
Some remember my post about VK-V31 top band possibilities last year as I was travelling there on holiday. Many useful responses, you will be glad to know my 100W into an inverted-L over seawater made 1 VK QSO, a few JA and a few Russia which is quite good going from there.. My Rx antenna was a no go, too much local QRN and tropical storms, the Tx antenna was 100M away so I ended up using that for rx. Not brilliant but better than nothing. This year I return but this time have room for a proper vertical and Rx antenna though this time far inland and thus no sea water. I was thinking some sort of top loaded vertical and whaler loop? Considering I have to fly with the kit but am willing to pay a little extra in terms of weight if absolutely necessary, what would you suggest is a good top band TX/RX antenna combo for a single traveller?
