My dual-band inverted-V is 45 foot high at apex and 20-feet high at
ends. Years ago read this would make a good NVIS antenna. Its a fan
type dipole with about six inches spread at ends. 40m bandwidth is
narrower than a separate dipole. I have the longer legs tuned for
3900 KHz so to work low end I use a tuner. It works well out to
800-1000 miles on 75m and farther on 40m.
The Marine HF SSB stations use 4125-KHz in AK as a calling and
emergency frequency. A dipole is common for shore stations. Comm
Sta Kodiak (USCG) uses this channel thru out AK.
