Any experimentation I do will be of the haphazard variety! My antenna during the glory days of DX 1964-66 consisted of half a TV antenna lead-in to one terminal and a wire under the eaves of my garage apartment to another terminal on my old HQ-160. Had (and may still have, if they haven't deteriorated) tapes of Algiers QRM'ing Colombia on 890, Argentina QRM'ing Australia on 950, Japan QRM'ing Jamaica on 750, etc., with that configuration while DX'ing in Pampa, Texas.
