I took the time yesterday, during a nice cold day here in TN to add some
chicken wire to the area where the feed point of my Inverted L for 160 is
at... This idea came from K9PG. Put about 75 feet radius  of chicken wire,
and connected the braid to it. To my surprised, it sure worked! SWR is
about 1:8 on the lower edge to about 2:0 on the upper side of the band.

Worked UA2, YT, DL and OM on cw with no issues, and also had a great run on
FT8 working EU. Got up early this AM, but the cold front that is passing
thru just made too much QRN!

PS No Pete I did not add a YV ground before you ask ;)
