Hi Kevin, There is a good reason I was on the 160M vertical on 20. It was the antenna I could hear you best on. :-) Right now, my rotating tower with the 40M Moxons is pointed at 164 and I won't turn it because I have a trolley cable attached at 125 feet, getting ready to install a four element OWA yagi. The weather has to cooperate. On 40, I was using the Moxons, even though they were 180 degrees from you. 18 dB down is still a good signal :-)
Always good to hear you.. I will try to make it as often as possible. But I will be traveling for the next two Sundays and won't be on the net. 73, Dave, K4TO On Sun, Dec 16, 2018 at 9:44 PM kevinr <kev...@coho.net> wrote: > Good Evening, > > Both bands were quiet and weak.
