Default question on random wire anttenas

old friend,
As I understand your post, you have lost the use of your 6 meter beam
and you would like to try a random wire antenna. And as I understand
you say that you have a tuner which is capable of working with a random
wire.

I would say go ahead and try it. But you can't leave the extra length
of wire still wound on the spool. You'll have to make the sacrifice and
go ahead and clip off a 50 ft. length or so.

Random wire antennas are not very common on 6 meters, but there's no
reason it can't work.

I'm not sure what that inducer is that you intend to leave on one end.

John
