hey Jim, well I just fed it at the lower corner because it was convenient.... only 25 ft of coax to the feed point about 8 ft of the ground just outside my shack. The apex is at 100 ft off one of my towers and then goes out to a tree out in the field and then back about 8 ft above ground. That way the cows don't get into it. It's about 550 ft +- total length. Why it works... don't ask me but I have dxcc on 160 . Rx could be better but thats why beverages were invented! I need to put my bev back up... bush hog guy got it a couple of years ago and I never got around to fixing it back. lol, Cort

Joe,

I am in the planning stage of trying a delta loop, apex up.
Doesn't this apply to a delta too ? For vertical radiation, feed 1/4 wave
down from the top (apex)  ?
