I worked WD2XSH/35 in South Dakota a couple weekends ago and heard him a couple times since. Here's 
his e mail to me on his setup. Think it should read one leg N/S and the other is E/W. Note that it 
is at 20 feet! Appears to work.

Jay,

I have an ICOM 706MKIIG feeding aqn attenuator which feeds a transverter from 7.2 MHz to 500 KHz. 
The transverter is feeding a solid state amp.  I am running about 10 - 15 watts ERP.  The antenna is 
a half wave dipole on 500 KHz about 20 feet above the ground in a N/S and E/W configuration. one leg 
is N/S and the other is N/S.

I am listening on a ICOM 756PROII and a HyGain Hytower.

Hi
Has anyone in the USA tried a 1/2 wave dipole on 500 K/cs? inv V design, at a modest height around 
100 ft.
