Hi Bob,

Have you considered an array of short verticals?  A simple
receiving 4-square is only 80 feet on each side

Subject: Re: Topband: Is a 300' BOG + preamp worth it on 160m?

Been using a SAL 30 with good success but would like more Euro QSOs in
the 160m contests.

I dont have enough room for a 600'+ Beverage. Alas my yard is a
200'x700' rectangle running E-W, with the house in the middle ( ~300'
of yard behind the house and 300 ft in front.)

So I have a problem aiming anywhere near EU without running directly
under my 52' tall 1/4 wave 160m INV-L and radial field.

Suggestions? Comments?

Bob
