[OKDXA] ST0F ANTENNA

Wed, 2 Oct 2002 15:17:58 -0500

Ok guys, here's the deal, drawing board wise. HyGain 14AVQ 10-40M trap
vertical, good condition, well cared for, purchased new in 1968 by yours
truly (then KH6GQC), used successfully for many years, one trap (20M) died
three or four years ago and was replaced with new one from HyGain. Recently
used (last summer) and worked fine. Works very well with only a few radials,
and especially works well roof mounted with a pair of radials (doing double
duty as guys) for each band. Don't know if I have the little roof mount out
there or not, but if I do it goes with it. I don't need it any more, put up
80' of R45 and a big Force 12 yagi. If the ZS4/ST0 can use it and you guys
want it let me know, no charge of course.
73, Jerry W5KP   Mustang
