    I didn't pick anything from the poll because anything VHF or UHF isn't included in these choices..
    I don't operate HF so the wire antenna's kinda count me out of all the options haha

    I do however have 3 verticals, one a Cushcraft AR-270 VHF-UHF at 35-40 feet (I think closer to 35) bein my main one, another dual band not sure of the make, and a generic ratshack scanner vertical..

    Two beams for sat's, foxhunting, or general directional use.

    That about sums up my antenna's for the moment anyways :)

    I think the survey shows an HF bias. ;)

    Hmmm.... NO South Tower!!! Well, that is where the Pit Bulls roam, so it would be DANGEROUS trying to put one up! They EAT anything or anyONE who comes back there!

    Never did.

    I spent about 3 years (1999 to 2002) on 6m and 2m SSB, before we moved to the present QTH. Managed to work Europe and Alaska on 6m, and made it out to Kansas City, MO on 2m. I had 5 elements on 6m and 13 elements on 2m.

    Now that I think about it, perhaps I should have mentioned that I do in fact have a tower. It currently tops out at about 18 inches above ground level—i.e., horizontal.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
