Hi Dean, It helps to look at the extremes. At the best extreme is a substantial disc at the top of the tower near 1/4wl in radius, and a 1/4 wl grounded tower. This should produce minimum current in

Modeling shows that this is true -- the Yagi acts like a top That would very much depend on the tower height, and the size of the yagi. The main problem with slopers is they are very dependent on wha
