I was tuning around the top band the other night, and wow, it was very busy. I heard DL, DF, DD, F, LY, UY, ON, IZ, IK, EA .... and some ssb nets.
It will get even better with the winter coming.
Do you use the top band? What antennas do you have / use?

What antenna would be good for the band especially in limited space of garden like mine about 20m x 20m?
