Hi MF
 
Interesting conditions to Reunion= last night
 
A total of 23 spots from FR5ZX. O= nly four stations reported
 
1 from G8HUH at -30=
3 from SV8CS best -24
6 from DK7FC best -24
13 from EA5DOM best -19

There is no mention to the feedin= g point for such antenna. In my setup H(L) is 80m and I'm feeding

From WSPR database, FR5ZX = transmitted in 503KHz. Is 630m band not allowed in Reuni=F3n?

FR5ZX is using a resonated vertical antenna with capacitive top load near h= is house. He also transmits with this antenna.
