Here is my situation:
Ham operator with Kenwood TS-590S and a TS-940S. Both have very good receive, the 590 having DSP and a bunch more RX bells and whistles than the 940.
I have 2 antennas up at present; A 40 meter inverted Vee, center @ 35' ends @ 6' and a Hustler 6BTV vertical with 100 50' radials on the ground. I use it for 80 -10 meters.
These antennas give me good performance on TX and RX on ham bands and some performance on SW, but I want to really get more into SW DX.
I have a large lot (almost an acre) w many trees (and no wife and little to no covenant restrictions for antennas)
My question is:
Would it be worth my while to install a Beverage antenna?
I am thinking of stringing 500-1000' of wire around my property. I could probably get it 10-20' up pretty easily.
Or is there some other, better antenna solution?
