A big thanks to Jim & Jim N4PSE and KG4VPC who helped me for 3-1/2 hours
today up at K4FK.
We got the coax/hard line connector on one hardline, and the hardlines
identified from inside to outside. Then we put up an inverted vee at 100
feet for 80 and 160.
They are resonant, and SWR on 160 is flat at 1850. SWR on 80 is 2:1 at 3580
and we need to play with orientation to get the match right.
BUT -- They arr UP !!! Thanks guys.
BTW, Dave Novoa has a really nice computer he is donating to the station --
more to follow-- Thanks Dave !!
