[600MRG] Almost QRV

[Gedas]

Some good news. After a year off of 630m I decided to replace my 600' 
Inv-V antenna with a different antenna and I am almost done with it. The 
Inv-V was a ton of fun to design, build, and operate but this time I 
thought I would try a vertically polarized antenna.

Over the last several weeks I was able to salvage the aluminum wire and 
loading coil from the Inv-V and turned it into a traditional Inv-L. It 
won't be anything earth shattering but it should be fun to test.....the 
vertical leg will be 60' long with the feedpoint 5' off the ground. The 
horizontal leg will be a single 185' run going to the top of a 2nd 85' 
tower. Two elevated 180' radials 6' off the ground will be the counterpoise.

Currently working on the matching network. Hope to see you all back on 
the band soon. 73
