You missed the crucial meaning of the word "propagated" in the first answer. The quad can't tell the difference between, say, noise from African thunderstorms and the emanations from 9U5CW. However,

I've never noticed my antennas lightening, but I suppose tying porcupines to them will help. Once the porcupines dry out, though, you would have to replace them with new, damp porcupines. Maybe some

Assuming we're talking 80-m here, I wouldn't bother with the low dipole except for regional coverage where a high radiation angle is a Good Thing. Low, horizontal wires aren't going to put much ener

Pat - SWR is only a function of the line's characteristic impedance and the load's impedance. If you had a lossline 50-ohm line and connected it to a 200-ohm load, the SWR is 4:1 - everywhere. Assum

The way to get ready is to look up the dB gain (either dBi or dBd) of your antennas and figure out what height they're at. The evaluation is for the most part just looking up entries in a table base
