For those stations who don't have a "big beam," remember that a 20
meter dipole is only more or less 33 feet long.
Hang that dipole as an inverted V, and you can squeeze it into a
pretty small space.
The G5RV is optimized for 20 meters, so if you have that antenna,
you're already in business.
Most of the vertical antennas also work well.
As has been said by several already, Tom had a great signal here with
his Alpha Delta DXCC and 100 watts.
All that to say: "You don't have to be big, just get on the air with
something."
See you this Sunday.
