Tonight’s (already running) A/B #HamRadio #antenna test is #160m #WSPR (RX only) between 6-80 #DXCommander vertical & this ferrite rod magnetic loop, indoors, on my bench.

This Icom 746 can tune almost anything, I got it to tune my #EFHW8010 for #160m / #FT8 (which is surprising, consider I sometimes have trouble tuning #40m and #80m with it, heh, probably because I had to splice it back together at some point and probably lost a little bit in length)
I've heard the phrase, "my tuner could tune a coat hanger"
I might need to try that 😂 with this, lol

@jlewallen oh no! yeah, that would be a rough start, but I'm glad you got it all fixed up
yeah, someday I'd like to pull off a #160m or #80m dipole
My EFHW is about 130ft-ish (40 meters) and when I bought it, they said it can "do #80m without a tuner" lol I have to use MFJ949E and even then it isn't perfect, heh
