[WVDXA] W8UV beat me to it with the " killer antenna "

[kc8uhe]

               Thanks Hal,
          We did not make the coil ..I didnt have enough coax... The antenna 
loads up very well..The SWR is 1.5 or less from 1.804  to 1.855..200 watts 
didnt cause Rf problems..I will put a little more in the line from the 
AL-82and see if there is any stray Rf problems...  Have a safe trip  ..
                                                                             
                Tim Kc8uhe
