ANTENNAS

As I live in a townhouse, my antenna system is very modest.   I use a Cushcraft R6000 for 10 through 20 meters, and an HF2V for 40 and 80 meters.   I have modified the HF2V for use on 30m as well.   My rear yard is only 5.5m by 6m, yet I have worked all continents on 80m!  Here are some photos of my antenna mini-farm.  Click on each for a larger photo.  I recently added the R6000, so some of the photos show my old MA5V vertical.   The R6000 is significantly better than the MA5V.
