Hi Paul,

I have been using a EWE Ant. on 136 for the past two years.

The pennant and Flag are modifications of the original EWE,but are not grounded. Since I prefer a grounded ant. on the Low bands I use the EWE.I get a good cardoid pattern which enables me to put a null on the Loran station in France just 60 miles away. I can fully recomend this ant. although it is quite big ! 300 feet long and 20 feet vert. sections. 73s Laurie.
