...speaking of lightning: What is a simple and effective ground for my base-loaded 80 meter vertical (Rohn 25g)? "Spark gap": How can one be made and what gap is correct? Thanks! Mike, K5UO _________

If tower is not grounded, use RF choke (available at Array Solutions). If tower is grounded (shunt fed), use RF choke too, from coax inner lead to ground. At our club's field day activities we use ba

In a uniform field gap (which you are not likely to get, but more later), breakdown, in air, at sea level, is about 70 kV/inch (or 30kV/cm). Almost any practical gap will breakdown at a lower voltage

Greetings, TowerTalkers; Regarding spark gaps and shunting static and lightning transients from vertical antennas: I refer you to "Lightning: Physics and Effects," by Vladimir Rakov and Martin Uman,

TT: I found these articles to be of value in understanding how arresters from Polyphaser, ICE and Delta operate: http://www.iceradioproducts.com/33.htm http://www.iceradioproducts.com/33a.htm . Both

Hi, Gene; I agree that the informed ham should read ICE's material. The informed ham should also read PolyPhaser's Tech Notes and the book PP publishes. The informed ham must also recognize some bias

Gas discharge tubes and open gaps also have some capacitance. (several pF or more wouldn't be unusual, for the little 300V tubes) You can also use a gas with a lower "minimum sparking voltage" than a
