    W9WDX Field Day 10 meter contest THIS WEEKEND!

    This is good timing. Just finishing up the 80M OCF Dipole. So far the analyzer says it's good to go with no tuner on 10M, and others :) We are up about 50' which is 2x what the regular 80M dipole was, so I should be doing a little better :) hope to hear some of you now!!

    Antenna modeling programs, some questions ...
