Personally, I am a bit of a QRP person, so all my transmitters are less than 100 W output power. And my antennas are so bad that sticking a couple of rods in the ground and feeding them with the 136 kc RF results in similar performance! 73, Dimitris VK1SV 2011/10/10 Markus Vester : > Hi=A0Dimitris, g'day VK, > > southern summer coming -=A0time to swap roles!
