Well, it was a beautiful day, so I went out and hacked up my perfectly good
40M dipole, and put up the 2BDQ 80/40M trap dipole. With the dimensions
Howard sent me, it was a snap to tune up. (It was a little high on 40 and a
teeny bit low on 80). Have it now centered on 7.050 and 3.550.
Just listening, it doesn't seem any different on 40 than my 40M dipole. Local
sigs are still better on it than on the loop. Nobody on 80 yet, so remains to
be seen.
I'll give it a go in the NJQRP HB Sprint this weekend. You all will be on for
that, right?
