160m inverted-L 12m long SpiderPole
It won't work as well as our verticals on longer Spiderpoles but will work a lot better than all short commercial 160m vertical antennas

160m Is it a sloper? or tower drive
How is it good to easily do QRV with a telescoping crank up tower in 160m band? I am troubled with disposal of wires when crank was downed by a normal sloper and shunt feed tower drive. I broke off the problem with this antenna

160m vertical antenna system
As ground net we use chicken-wire which is covering the lot completely 60m x 60m.The conductivity arround every vertical feeding and grounding point (more than 30) is improved by copper discs which are interconnected by copper strips. Not only the mesh but also the 10 cm wide stripes grew into the earth

160 Meter Inverted U Antenna
This particular 160 meter antenna looks like a half square, but its radiation pattern and performance is more like a vertical and it is about 40% as big as a half square. If you have about 100 feet or so space it is a viable 160 antenna

50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135

50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135 Preamps for 144 and 430 MHz, for 50 MHz, the BFG135a is a cheap transistor and in my view rather strong. It is not easily damaged by static discharge or RF power. FG connection
