Age is 68 and been a HAM 52 years and still have fun. I operate 40 meter CW  at night till the weeee hours---often near 7.016. My station is a TS870 and a KW amp (AL1200) also AL811H AMP--- My tower is 160 ft of R55G with insulated guys and only use tower to hang wire from. At this time I have 2 bisquares on the tower one for 40 meters up at 155 feet(NE) and another for 30m at 105 feet---I slant wire feed the 160 ft tower on 80 and 160 meters at times---I have been most active on cw 40 and 30 meters till abt 3 am local. I use a brass racer paddle and 2 ears for cw---no PC modes or keyboard cw. I should have a 20 meter array up soon as 20 starts to open late nite. The bisquare antenna is ole big vertical diamond -- open at top and feed at bottom with 1/4 wave 600 ohm stub--very high Z. The antenna on 40 has 4 half waves and is abt 100 ft tall and 100 ft wide with apex at near 160 feet Pix of tower at top with 2 bisquares but you cant see the wires with small amount of pixels. The long white spots on the guy wires are fiberglass insulators 11 feet long---also some egg insulators in guys. c u on 40m
