. Here in Ohio we are still having moderate QRN especially in the evenings. When I get on at our SR, the VK/ZL boys are often coming through fairly well with much less QRN.
My INV-L has a ceramic insulator at the apex, which is held in place by 3/16" black synthetic rope of some kind ( Home Depot source) thrown over my 52 ft tall black walnut tree tied off to another tree. I dont use pullies since so often the rope slips off the roller and into the crack between the roller and the U-bracket. So I just tied a rope to the other side of the insulator and hoist. _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
