Anyone interested in taking part in a club (multi-op) station for the Trans Tasman 160-meter contest next month?

The big challenge would be to set up a suitable antenna at the clubhouse - Dipole? Loop? Sloper? Vertical? One of each?

The contest goes from 1800 to 2400 on Saturday July 7 and is in one-hour blocks, so we could allocate an hour each to six operators, plus "spotters" & tea-makers etc.

The idea was canvassed on the Monday night net, with some thoughts for an antenna. Personally, I've never worked 160. Can we do it? 

As July 7 is also Project Day, we would surely have enough hands to whip up any number of antennae...all suggestions appreciated!
