Hi all: 

I call my radial field and vertical antenna out back of my cottage my antenna farm. LOL 
I know its not a real antenna farm as I guess to have a real antenna farm, you need more than 1. LOL 
At any rate, I'm going to put down a couple of 65 foot radials in a couple of weeks to help the verticals performance on 80M and I'm going to put up a long wire for 160M, incase the conditions are to windy to put up my vertical for the CQWW SSB contest the last weekend of October. 
Anyone have a formula in calculating the length of a 160M long wire?
