[CW] Fwd: [SSN] SAQ Reception

[Darrel Emerson]

Yes, a 2-wavelength long Beverage should work nicely.

When SAQ was in regular operation, their receive antenna was something 
like that - it went for miles across the countryside, including under 
bridges on the way.

           Cheers,
                    Darrel, aa7fv.
