Hi guys, new to the list here, mostly been lurking since joining.
I would like to get a better signal on the Moose and Squirrel net.. I'm 
up in Northwestern VT not far from Dean, KK1K.
I am guessing that based on the coverage of the net, some sort of NVIS 
antenna for 60 meters would be my best bet from home.. I've currently 
got an Alpha-Delta DX-CC dipole and two Alpha-Delta DX-SWL slopers for 
shortwave, one beaming 180 for SA and one beaming 45 for EU.

I don't really want to put up ANOTHER wire antenna ( nor is my wife 
enthusiastic about the idea, considering the tribander and satellite 
yagis  in the front yard and the 2-meter EME array in the back yard ) 
but I would like to be able to participate more in the M&S nets.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance and VY 73,

Bob W1ICW

I'm also looking for suggestions for CW frequencies.. I've just restored 
a CIA RS-6 set and planning to order up a few more rocks for it .
