[Lowfer] Wm status+

[Bill Ashlock]

Hi Dex,

I just sent you a reply but the text got dumped. Here goes again:

I shut down Wm last night because the input current was near zero. This morning I made some improvements to the loading coil and found the current much improved but still only .7W at best tuning. I figure it's the soppy 4" of snow underneath. This shows that there still is a fair amount of electric field not being caputerd by the counterpoise. Will have to make the top hat smaller or the counterpoise larger in order achieve near 0 Rac and near infinite antenna current :)

Thanks for watching ... and have a happy new year!

Bill
