I don't mean to disagree with Tom, whom I have the highest respect for, but the math doesn't quite work out. If you have 1/4 wl radials, you create a circle or radius 1/4 wl, with a perimeter of pi/2

Well, I think our course is now clear. Someone needs to put up a vertical with 40 1/4-wavelength radials and make some detailed measurements. Then do the same thing with 50 and 60 radials. Then see i

I think it goes this way: Circles and lambdas have 360 deg. each. One percent of 360, or 0.01 of a lambda, is 3.6, which translates to about 100 radials. A radial every 0.025 lambda, or 8 deg, would

To me this appear only a formal controversy. The current density with a quarterwave vertical and quarterwave radials a quarterwave off the vertical base is infact quite limited. Where the radial scre

Actually it is a little less. Just to be more precise and not to accumulate errors while lying out radials AA4LR example is valid for the length of the arc with radius of the radial length, being .25

That is an unfounded old Ham's tale, just like the idea that two or four elevated radials is enough. (Four radials are enough if they are a hundred feet or more above ground on 160). This was all me

There are THREE issues that are improved with ground radials, NOT just one. 1. Reduce ground resistance as a series resistance loss at the feedpoint. Since a shortened radiator has a lower radiation

Other problems are with small elevated systems, even at great height, you need to choke RF off the OUTSIDE of the feedline or efficiency suffers. You can NOT have a path to earth for RF, and that me
