Highly optimized HF antenna

Hi, Graybeard

I will design ASAP an HF antenna based in ideas developed during our discussions.

I will field test it in my RV where i currently use a moving pole plus trailing wire with SUPERB performance, ranging from 1.5 ~ 18 MHz rated 500 W rms. I operate it with a manual tuner assembled with the best material (MIL STD) used in old birds.

But the moving and the height above the motor home presents an extra load to my "crew" and we hit telephone wires and trees sometimes.

Now we must concentrate in the AF447 issue that will be heating up with the recent findings.

Thanks for the motivation you gave me to further study an issue i was interested since 1965 and is one of my passions. HF comm.
