Clete:
The carport is,
about 14ft wide, 24ft long and 9 ft high.

The ground would be running the wire down to a ground rod at eachpoint, 
three on the south side of the carport.

Physical dimentions of the antenna ould be as high as would be self 
supporting.  I sent another e-mail (just lately) on what I would like for 
one.  say 20 to hopefully the magic 33ft.

My total thought were to have the 160 vertic al on the carport, then north 
of that and about 45 degrees to the carport a doublet for 80 and 40, then a 
little north of that a 10m vertical.  And a 2m to the west of all that.  So 
I thought that the 160 would be the most difficult to do.

I now have a loaded droopy dipole with Ameritron ATR-15 tuner, 160m maybe 
OK but not efficient and not, 80m all states 50, 40 cannot tune American SB 
part.  So planning for this fall when the rain and sleet come to put up 
something.
