Hey John. 160M band would be about 259 ft long and because this band has such a low take off angle, youd have to get this up pretty high.

To work 20 meters, you’d have a 20 meter wire? Does that sound plausible?

To me, it sounds like this is written by someone who doesn't understand antennas or that English is their second or third language. It is a typical EFHW description....So who is the manufacturer or the seller? Sounds commercial, not home brew. 73...Rick W5RH On Fri, Apr 12, 2024 at 7:43 PM Suggs, Marvin (KTRK-TV) via BVARC <bvarc@bvarc.org<mailto:bvarc@bvarc.org>> wrote: Thank you <IMG_6336.PNG> Sent from my iPhone ________________________________________________ Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org<mailto:BVARC@bvarc.org> http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org__;!!Om87Lau1Cg!PrVyQwBKYM_-Tn098bVJDRhXlwgAVZJNs4e5QYLNH7JhKmvHbSeqBlJvrVj86RyUNy4n4pxAeuba6g$> Publicly available archives are available here: https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/__;!!Om87Lau1Cg!PrVyQwBKYM_-Tn098bVJDRhXlwgAVZJNs4e5QYLNH7JhKmvHbSeqBlJvrVj86RyUNy4n4pwN5XwDDQ$> -- Rick Hiller W5RH e-mail: rickhille...@gmail.com<mailto:rickhille...@gmail.com> Cell/VM/Text: 832-474-3713 Physical: 9031 Troulon Drive Houston, TX 77036 ________________________________________________ Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org<mailto:BVARC@bvarc.org> https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org__;!!Om87Lau1Cg!PrVyQwBKYM_-Tn098bVJDRhXlwgAVZJNs4e5QYLNH7JhKmvHbSeqBlJvrVj86RyUNy4n4pxAeuba6g$ Publicly available archives are available here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/__;!!Om87Lau1Cg!PrVyQwBKYM_-Tn098bVJDRhXlwgAVZJNs4e5QYLNH7JhKmvHbSeqBlJvrVj86RyUNy4n4pwN5XwDDQ$ ________________________________________________ Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org<mailto:BVARC@bvarc.org> http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org__;!!Om87Lau1Cg!IgVIAcU5LIUtGmAkWCumpbFI92WWgOQc51Pje4Pg4Bp3hmwxSkrmZHtvwyATTsaOmoIhioe7Zf5BGg$> Publicly available archives are available here: https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/__;!!Om87Lau1Cg!IgVIAcU5LIUtGmAkWCumpbFI92WWgOQc51Pje4Pg4Bp3hmwxSkrmZHtvwyATTsaOmoIhiocOx_25zw$> ________________________________________________ Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org__;!!Om87Lau1Cg!IgVIAcU5LIUtGmAkWCumpbFI92WWgOQc51Pje4Pg4Bp3hmwxSkrmZHtvwyATTsaOmoIhioe7Zf5BGg$ Publicly available archives are available here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/__;!!Om87Lau1Cg!IgVIAcU5LIUtGmAkWCumpbFI92WWgOQc51Pje4Pg4Bp3hmwxSkrmZHtvwyATTsaOmoIhiocOx_25zw$ ________________________________________________ Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Publicly available archives are available here: https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/ ________________________________________________ Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org<mailto:BVARC@bvarc.org> http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Publicly available archives are available here: https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/ ________________________________________________ Brazos Valley Amateur Radio Club BVARC mailing list BVARC@bvarc.org http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Publicly available archives are available here: https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/
