Can you set up A KAZ in the dark?
I can barley set up a BOG In the dark.

On the other hand, the Cliff seems to provide a potent transoceanic propagation boost for smaller antennas, like the 15' x 15' Flag, used by Chuck last week, and my own 15" FSL. For Perseus-SDR DXers, the big question is probably whether the Cliff's potent transoceanic signal boost will enable smaller broadband antennas to outperform large single-loop wire antennas set up at sea level. Chuck's favorable Kiwi results at Rockwork 4 last week should provide some new input in the discussion.
