Doug,
If you have the room, here is an alternative that I am using now at ZF9CW.
I believe this would be better than a coil at the base.
Make that vertical your 160m transmit antenna by adding two wires attached
to the top and going out as far as you can so the ends are as high as you
can get

Hi Joel
I have the same impression as Bill mentioned. 160m paper QSL requires a card
checker, however LOTW confirmation does not have the same process, no QSO or
QSL check at all. We've seen 160m " QSO's" on Club Log and subsequent
confirmation on LOTW on plain day light.

Folks - I'm not exactly understanding the LoTW comments on this thread.
If it is referring to the LoTW screen shot totals listed by OK1RD on his
website then that is the combined totals in his DXCC record, not the
totals confirmed solely via LoTW so a "hack" has not necessarily
occurred.
Bill, all indications are that he got his fake OK1RD 2008 DXCC totals using
paper cards, not LOTW. I would expect he got his fake 2018 totals in a
similar way.

Hi Steve.
You are 100 % right, the V works like a top hat for a vertical TX antenna.
I it simple to detune any vertical TX antenna. Vertical TX antenna is the only
way to work DX on topband!
You may ask about the inverted V or low dipole, they are not 100% horizontal,
actually they are 50%
>>Doesn't say much for the DXCC checking process either. 73 Clive GM3POI
Guys this was probably done by OK1RD to embarrass ARRL/DXCC, in retaliation
for ARRL (correctly) removing his bogus listing over 10 years ago. He
probably found a way to hack LOTW and no human monitored the result. I'm
My take on this is that having had a low inverted vee at about 80ft and a
top loaded vertical over a very good ground system to compare against each
other. I have found the following that despite the vertical being short 60ft

One way to get around the problem Frank W3LPL outlines below is to have one
