Hi Markus,

I will pass your suggestion to the local QRO operators here in VK.
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!
