I'm only using an FT-847 with 100 ft. of ladder line going up to a
center-fed dipole at about 60ft.. overall dipole length about 320
feet.
JULIE DXER,
Why a 320 Foot 'long' Dipole ?
? overall dipole length ?
- Are you counting the 60 feet of ladder line in the 320 feet ?
- Dipole Tip-to-Tip 260 Feet ~ 1.8 MHz (160 M Band)
iwtk ~ RHF

Just curious of typical signal strengths people are receiving and with what
kind of antenna and radio. I am using an Icom 718
with an indoor 30 foot random wire. I know, I know I'm going to put up a
better antenna but that's what I've got for now. By the way I'm in Texas.
