     You can enjoy operating from 160m band to 6m band for setuped antennas of the three roof towers.

     A current problem is that VSWR of reverse-L for 160m newly increased is very high.  When the adjustment is taken with the antenna tuner(FC-901), it is very sensitive.  However, if the adjustment is operated by the taking 500W, not only JA but also Eu, W, AF, and QSO are possible.  Moreover, because VSWR of CD78Jr is high, it is necessary to operate only 75m-SSB by 100W.

     Other HF band is 500W in general operation, there is no stress, and can enjoy operating.  And, 80m band had newly increased wire vertical antenna of the full size.  As for 80m band CW, a good result will be achieved.
