Not exactly, but close. I installed an 80M 1/4 wave sloper (a/k/a half-sloper) wire off my 64 foot tower at 50 feet. Above the wire at 66 feet is a Bencher Skyhawk tribander where I shorted all the parasitic elements to the boom for extra top-hat loading. The sloper seems to be pretty broadbanded and I can work into the Canadian maritime provinces and UK and western Europe pretty regularly from Maryland with 100 Watts. FWIW. 73 de Gene Smar AD3F
