I am interested in operation primarily on 160, 80, and 40. I have space for a full-size dipole for 160 but I cannot get it up very high, maybe 30 feet, higher than that only at great expense and with great difficulty. I will likely put up a 160-meter dipole at 30 feet and feed it with ladder line and a tuner, and use it for NVIS work on 160-40. For DX, though, I'm wondering if I will be happy with a vertical such as the Voyager DX from Gap Antennas, or if I should bite the bullet and go to the expense and difficulty of getting the dipole up 60-80 feet (which still won't be very high, compared with a wavelength, at 160 or 80). What's your advice? |
