John I am trying to picture this. Is it coax from rig to balun. Do you have a ground system for counterpoise. I have lots of wire and can wind a 9:1 quick enuf. May have time B4 the snow to try

Byron I get good results 80/160 with an end fed antenna 9:1 Balun and 30m of wire. you can zig zag if you don't have enough straight line. Best John KE4JB

Barry ...one of my other hobbies is N scale model railroading ..... I have tried 160m scaled down to N scale and it didn't load up .... Jerry .... I never tried 160m in HO scale so I am unable to

Maybe Z if you're QRP !

More like "N" and that would probably go great with my QRP setup. QRP rig es QRP ant Barry ---In 070@..., <n9avy@...> wrote : If ya build it in HO scale (1:87 scale ) Jerry n9avy

Don't think I can cram that in my available 40' X 40' space. Barry ---In 070@..., <n9avy@...> wrote : Here are a couple pics of K9DX's former remote site: K9DX K9DX Northern Illinois DX Association

Mike... You’re aimed in the right direction with the beverage. I had a beverage on 160m when I lived in So. 5-land... 817’ long, terminated in a ¼ watt, 50 ohm resistor about 5’ above

Guys in Utah sound like Rhombics. 4 telephones poles a wave length (or 1/2 wave) with a bunch of wire wound around them. Probably needs more real estate. Jerry n9avy

I know what you mean about being less efficient. I guess the question is less efficient or nothing at all. That is where I'm at right now. I'll certainly dig into it more. I was curious what everyone

As Jerry said… verticals ARE noisy. I noticed someone mentioned an Inverted L. I love my Inverted L, but I’ll say that when I had my 160 meter loop, I would find myself transmitting on the

Byron: There are some laws of physics/antennas you just can't ignore. An antenna that is a 1/2 wave length or longer will be more efficient than anything shorter. Sure you can use loading coil

Roger Bryon- Sorry for telling you what you already knew! Once set, the K3 setup just stays rock solid. The only control I fool with is the power knob when going from QRP to about 35w. I also have

I'll see if I can get a mark up of my plot from Google Maps or something, but let me see if I can explain it a little. I have lots of land around me. Though it isn't mine. I sit on about .65 acres of

I've read that from Don and everything I have ever done with my settings I always get just that, 4 bars solid, 5th bar flickering. Nothing more, nothing less. Seems like I should be able to get some

Byron, Distortion anywhere in the signal chain can cause a wide signal. That means the distortion can occur when strong, clean signal is received by a less then good receiver. …and a strong signal
