races and/or nationalities you don't

If you don't like it, lay out some more wire.

I lived on the west coast for the better part of my life and I got fairly
good reception but then again I spent a lot of time on my ant's. You would
have went " WOW
nice!!" I had four long wires and two inverted Vs and a Eves Dropper type of
tuned dipole I made. I was lucky to have the ground for it all. I live here
in Southern MN now and I do like getting the increased signal gain that this
region has an advantage of in regards to European DX and the low power
pirate ops etc... The bottom line is a good ant is the #1 priority. It takes
work and experimentation to get your ant right and most neglect it because
it is work.
