[Lowfer] " XR " WSPR on now for the night

[Mike.WE0H]

Throw up an Ashlock loop so you don't have wet ground issues. That 
antenna works day & night, winter thru summer without any issues. Keep 
the vertical but the TX loop will cure all the funny antenna current 
variations for good. The TX loop will also do double duty as a HF loop 
which will work incredible on 160m & 80m. Point it to your favorite HF 
band DX heading so you get awesome coverage in that direction, keeping 
in mind it will radiate in duel directions so you can get DX coverage in 
two headings with lesser coverage off the sides. It will radiate pretty 
much omni directional on the LF band. Not perfect omni but decent enough 
to not worry about it. An idea anyhow...
