I have browsed the archives unsuccessfully. Hi Tom, It makes absolutely no difference at all if you use a metal pole or non-metallic pole as long as you insulate the pole from the wire. The antenna is a fairly low impedance antenna, and any effect of having a metal support inside the loop would be immeasurable.. 73, Tom W8JI W8JI@contesting.com |
