Hi
A wind storm took down half of my 80 meter center fed zepp this
afternoon. Half of the antenna now droops from the eaves of the house 28
feet up, to the top of a pear tree (about 15 feet up). From there the
rest of it drops immediately to the ground. Somehow that didn't stop my
K2 from reaching Laci, HA0HW in Hungary with a 549 sig. Admittedly I was
on 40 meters so maybe that makes whats left of the antenna into a (sort
of) 40 meter conventional (end fed) zepp. Or maybe it's mojo.
Either way it won't stop me from killing most of tomorrow trying to
fix things up.
73,
