Thanks for the suggestion, but I couldn't find that article. It wasn't
listed in the QST index search, which covers Ham Radio, QST, and QEX.
Maybe some other magazine.
The ARRL Antenna Book 20th edition has a pretty good description of long
wire antennas, but not any experimental data, and most of the analysis
is for antennas at 1 wavelength height. The long wire under
consideration here has a height which varies from approx. 0.14 to 0.04
wavelengths at 160 meters. That makes a big difference in performance.
