I was advised 6200 was rather close to some BC stations...?

Many thanks for your support Dave, I'll give you a mention on air :D Spent this weekend recording a show with 'ogre', so both of us present it. As the weather was so nice we decided to record it outside - if you hear any birdsong on 48 meters, is probably us! Many diffrent songs picked out a random,...

A very unusual half wave dipole! total lentgh is 20 meters. An ATU would be useful, but I don't have the money. We did go out briefly from 15:30 - 16:00utc, and I have just got back from the woods. Have been tying up hook-on points for the Antenna.

Feed point is 34 feet!. I know this arrangement is not ideal. Have more coax on order to make an antenna for use in some nearby woods. Calculator gives 22.7 as optimum lenght... Shall order another 30 meters. (extra coax shall form feedline). Woods= Height and horizontal space. Woods= carrying batte...
