Dipole or longwire?
Have the Grove Skywire, but had to shorten it to about 45 ft due to lack
of
space (end fed w/coax) and not happy with reception and noise. To put a
longwire directly to the back of radio, I would be making several turns
and
corners - will this hamper reception? What's the best antenna for a 40-45
ft
run? Running 2 radios thru a Grove TUN-4 - Icom R75 and Drake SW-8 -
looking for suggestions and ideas - thanks!
