This homebrew trap dipole for 40/75 came down in a storm last fall 2015. My friend AB8HN (the builder), revamped it during the winter. Just raised it again, this time with a spring at the tree end, 45 ft up. It slopes down to my garage, at 15 foot. Works great on 40 DX. Worked the EA His Majesty contest this weekend. The resonant portion is at the phone portion of 40 and only 50 khz down on 75 (see graph). Wish me well and hope this stays up this time around!
