[K3PZN-List] The Cookie Tin Antenna - QST oct 2013 p 39-41

[Ray Wright]

hi All

ok question   if I work 20m ssb on a diapole can I put up a vertical that
is very close using CW and what band could I use?   There seems to be a
problem of using 20m ssb and 40m cw when I try it.  This using 100w on
diapole and qrp on the vertical which can do anyband.  Any suggestions from
the group?
