Hi in this thread I mentioned using a 1/4 wave shorted stub at the feed points
of our 4 square for static drain. Since we want to farm the paddy land we will
use a non-resonant counterpoise of 48 radials connected to a perimeter wire
about 1.5m above the flooded ground. The only galvanic connection to earth
would be back through the RG6 feed line to the center control box. So would
adding an RF choke to the earth ground at the element base be a good idea in
this case? Does anyone have any experience with the behavior of elevated
radials in a lightning strike?
