Folks, I regularly work the arrl 160 contest and will be in the cqww 
tonight.  My antennas are as follows:
1. 120 foot physical length dipole with 20 feet of loading near each 
end, and a drooping tail at each end.
Amounts to 180 feet of wire in the air.  This is at approximately 25 feet.

2. 90 foot half sloper fed against the 30 foot tower supporting the feedpoint.

Neither of these are anything near optimal, but in the cw contests, 
do reasonably well.

Good luck to all participants..
