OK Eric, interesting observation abt the Alpha. I also have a BuddiStick which is a bit finicky too. Made my first HF contacts on it. I noticed that if I use more than one counterpoise, it tunes easier and has "better ears".
My Main Antenna is an OCF Dipole up about 30 feet house to trees. Works fine as I've had QSO's from Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Africa, all of Europe and the CONUS, All of Souoth America. If I can hear them, I can work them though it does not tune 160M at all.
73!
