Don,
How did you get your dipole up 110 feet? Is it strung between towers, or
do
you have some gigantic trees in your yard? It took me a long time just to
get mine up 35-40 feet up in my trees using a slingshot-fishing reel combo.

The dipole is cut for 80m, but I can load it up on 160 as a quarterwave
dipole with
DON - you were ROARING IN to Florida on 160m a few months
back. Strongest signal on the band. I had assumed that you were
using a full-sized vertical. Seriously!
I was considering a homebrew "Carolina Windom" for my
"soon-to-be-smaller-sized lot."

What kind of "crappy" antennas are you using, i.e., doublets fed with coax,
open wire lines, etc., or end-fed wires? Or, some combination of types
maybe?
Rather that building up a bunch of tuners you might consider putting your
efforts into erecting a set of antennas that all worked direct

My two cents is that no traps I have ever used held up long
(days/weeks) under any sort of AM, except the butternut antenna, which does
not use real traps, but some other crazy setup.
All the trap dipole stuff c

I have the shack structured (in the loosest sense of the word...) into a number
