So I'm having fun with different antennas, bumped it up another 6 feet and can now grab WERS 50 miles south in clear stereo, which was my last challenge.
But of course I want more. I'm maxed out at about 18' currently.
Towers aren't an option, but I've got this tree that's tempting me. I figure I can hoist something up to about 60', but obviously it's got to be suitable for hanging, and omnidirectional as there's no rotating.
Can anyone relate experience using a j antenna? 1/2" copper seems choice, and the wind is pretty harsh up there, so the slim design is tempting. Any thoughts?
