On 18 Aug 2003, you wrote in rec.radio.amateur.antenna:

Hi folks

Although licensed for over 12 years as a G7... converting 3 years ago
to a M0...callsign (with 12 wpm cw), personal circumstances have not
until now permitted me to get started on HF.

Problem now is antennas (and indirectly xyl).

Have garden to rear of property, narrow but 80' long from house to
boundary. A further 25' is available along side of property, rear to
front, but approx 6' proximity to house wall.
Height of proposed feedpoint approx 17' 6" ; height at boundary 12'

Would initially like to cover 14 - 7 and 3.5 MHz with a coax fed
horizontal wire dipole of approx 66',


Carolina Windom for 40m to 10m, trapped dipole (yuck!) for 80m.
