I love building antennas, especially wire antennas. I have an extended double zepp for 40 meters here at home, 170 feet long and room to put up something bigger. Have fun on HF, I just love it. Looks like you have been having fun building too.

I love the open wire feeders on one of your wires. Not 'window line', but *true*, open wire feeders!

Hi Allen,
What is the brand name of your quadrifilar? How well does it work? Any null points from horizon to horizon? You have an awesome setup. I close on my new home tomorrow. I'll have a couple of acres in the country to put up my crankup tower and all of my antennas. I can't hardly wait... :lol:
