I seem to remember that ant and another person who claimed to get a goo
match with a sloper fed with a i think 1/4w of wire conected at abt 2` from
base of tower .I have lost them notes . I put up a vertical abt 50 ` high
with top bottom capacity hats, 120` long.Now this was suspended in a tree
A good analysis of all this can be found from IV3PRK as he planned his antenna
for his new QTH in HC land.
