Dan, hope your skeds went well. What beam were you trying out? bb

Didn't hear Dan.

Hope he didn't get antenna advice from W3RV. ;^)

I have had this particular antenna since 1974. I bought it when I was in
Germany on my first tour. Put it up for a couple of years in Munford
Alabama in the 80s. Replaced it with a homebrew monobander for 20. Sold
the antenna, then bought it back.

Repaired it after it hit the ground in a storm. Then drug it around with me
for another couple of decades. Finally got a place to put it.

OK! I've been dragging stuff around for a few years, and I'm real
tired of living in a restricted neighborhood. By next summer I should
have some real estate that's not 70'x120'.

Best of Luck getting it working.
