[Contest] Re: Low band antenna question

[IronmanY2k]

John, 
I have a Gap voyager and it is OK on 80m, real good on 40m and minimally acceptable to get you on the air on 160m.  In other words it is a lot more then a dummy load on 160m but nothing close to a 1/2 wave dipole inverted V w/apex at 72'.  I would recommend the Butternut HF2V for 80 meters at 2KW and it has an add on kit for 160m but it is only rated for 500W CW and 1KW on SSB.

73, Jim

�Hi,

Is anyone using a GAP VOYAGER DX antenna?  

If yes what us your opinion of the antenna on 80m and 160m? 

Would you recommend this antenna?

 If no, what would you recommend for 160m in a limited area 100� x 60�?

Thanks in advance.
