[KCDXC] 160M contest

Thu, 27 Jun 2002 15:37:56 -0500

My lot is about 77' wide by 130' deep.  The house faces to the north and
sits a little forward so the backyard is about 55 deep by 77 wide and bound
by a chainlink fence.  My tower sits at the southeast corner of the house.
There are no overhead powerlines and the only trees are no more than 10 feet
tall.

How tall are the verticals you used?

I think So... Define your lot..
I think one of the verticals I used last year would work on most lots.
