Agree, thanks for not making multiple contacts.  Working K1N on 160 with my 
Index Labs Qrp Plus is a challenge.

The way I look at it, I got them on 80/160, so anything else is a bonus.

There is still lots of time, so it might be best to wait for a day or two
before looking for insurance Q's while Clublog gets sorted out.

For me, I would really, really hate to have an insurance Q end up costing
someone else their one any only chance at putting K1N in the log.

Topband: Balun or no balun

2014-11-10 Thread W3AW via Topband
I have put up a 160 meter horizontal loop fed with 30 feet of 450 ohm feed line 
to my tuner.  I have a Radioworks 4 to 1 balun. I am considering splicing into 
the feed line at 10 feet so I can run 20 feet of  coax into the shack.  
Thoughts?  I run a qrp plus on 160.
