[CW] My XMAS 1 1/2-cents worth...

[DANNY DOUGLAS]

40 meters, are simple antennas here.  I have a 80/40 dual dipole system set 
, running north and south, and another set east and west.  One set is cut 
for the top of the bands, and the other for the bottom, so I dont need to 
use a tuner in getting to either end of either band.  It wouldnt matter if I 
only were running 100 watts, since the TS570s has an antenna tuner built in 
that will cover both ends of both bands, on either antenna, but if I decided 
to throw on the full power (400 watt Ameritron ALS500) I can do it, without 
worrying about high SWR.
