What kind of vswr/bandwidth does that give you with the antenna so close to the ground?

To memory the swr was ok, below 1:5:1.
Took abit of tuning, but full output power from the rig without use of a tuner.
I now have changed this antenna into a low 20mtr dipole.

Thanks for the comments, but i now have changed the 160mtr ant into a 80mtr ant, more activity on 80mtrs here in zl and vk.
Now having fun again on 80mtrs with my low antenna.

nice antennas mate always a fan of the system you use there. I am using CB equipment this way - should have some vids to see. I have wires strung around the garden too work a treat. 73 Richard

It works ok, the main thing is that it is resonent for the frequency.
Ofcourse it would be great to have it much higher off the ground.
I have worked stations upto about 500kms away with 5 by 9 signals ,and i am only using 100watts output power.
Still early days yet, there is an ssb 160mtr contest for zl/vk on the 7th of July so will test it out during that.
