Congratulations on being spotted, Roger. A 10m vertical with a top-hat can
be quite an effective antenna.
The easiest way to improve your set up would be to sort out your earthing
arrangements. Just laying some wires along the fence or in the flower bed
would help you get out. The longer the wires, the better. They don't need to
be buried to be effective.

Well, there is no way my setup will ever compete with G3KEV. However I was
amazed to be received by anyone last night, let alone in Norway! My setup is
unbelievably bad and is just the coax to my 2m big-wheel (about 10m at most)
with much just about 1m over ground and a mains plug ground. The ATU is just
a ferrite rod. Today I must work out my ERP. To those who copied me - thank
you.
