Howard:
I know you gave a few details earlier, but could you give us a more in-depth
description of the actual antenna system you used?
Sounds like a great go kit antenna that can be built very easily and for
next to nothing.

We were both amazed! You can't imagine how low the noise levels were in the
middle of nowhere.
The revolution of the availability of ballenced feed lines, and outdoor
automatic tuners, has improved the effectivenes of the most cost and radio
efficient system we have. That is the tuned half wave dipole.
With the tuning, multi band double extended zepps can be made to work well
anywhere.
The new insulated antenna wire is very easy to work with.
Maybe its not new, but it is new to me!!
Probably less than $20 to build a working HF antenna.
