your HF antenna ... insulated backstay, other ?

what antenna choices
you have made.
Insulated backstay works fine....well, once we got rid of the WIRE mainsail
boom rigging that just trashed it whenever the boom was on centerline.
It's nylon, now...
If the masts ever have to come down or be reworked on the ketch, the
triattic will also have insulators added to each end of it and a new wire
installed from the top of the insulated backstay to the center of the
triattic to add a capacitor hat effect to the top of the HF antenna.
Longer is always better on HF.....
