[Lowfer] K7PO testing 8270.0

[Ward K7PO]

David,

Antenna at K7PO, used for 160m, 630m, 2200m, and 8 khz is;

100' Rohn 25 mounted on an insulator
16 65' long sloping top loading wires
~300 radials, on ground - 1st 100 are 100' long,  next 150 range from 150' to 300',
the rest are up to 450' long

Antenna system measures 228 ohms at 8.27 khz. New loading coil, wound with #18 vs
#22 in present coil should reduce that number by ~30 ohms or so. Ron 'XND and I,
with some other "expert" help finished the new coil yesterday.
