Hello All, When the sunspot cycle was lower (a few years ago) I could hear Europe shortpath with a very very long(4 wavelengths) Beverage that ran down a steep hill toward Europe loosing 150 feet of

Hello, Is there any way to run a beverage over a canyon and maintain a ground simulation. i.e... Keep the beverage thinking that it is near lossy earth while it may be 30' above the ground before it

3. Topband: Beverage w/ground simulation (score: 1)
Author: "D Andersen" <w7dddd@msn.com>

My main interest is to find out if the antenna wire which is 30' from the bottom of the canyon will change the antenna from an endfire Beverage into a 30' high long wire at that part of the antenna.

I received four responses telling me how to put grounded wires over the canyon to simulate a ground condition and minimize the "long wire" effect (high angle reception). One suggested a single wire a

Hello, I have done some modeling of a loaded Beverage and it looked to me like the best place for loading was about 10% from each end. The pattern noticeably resembled a longer Beverage. If the Bever

Hello, Speaking of short path contacts to Europe through the auroral oval from Arizona the difference is a few QSO's a year at Solar Max to 10 or 20 QSO's a night during the solar Min. The difference

On occasions I hear hams talking about the direction of the long path. It seems that many hams think that the "long path" is the inverse of the "short path. In reality it is the direction of the gray

Hello, A good test to see the interaction in play is to use EZNEC. Model a Beverage antenna and a 1/4 wave parasitic self resonate vertical near it. Move the vertical all around the Beverage in the m

Hello All, I center feed most of my 2 wire Beverage antennas and this works fine too. My biggest problem is damage caused by the antlers of Deer and chewing damage caused by Coyotes and Javalina's(wi

Hi Mike, To minimize damage from large animals I use #10 solid conductor hard drawn copper wire with insulation (house wire). The animals do chew and mess with it but I have no failures. I also try t

Hi Chuck, I have tried a Beverage on the ground and found that the gain was to low for use without a pre-amp. I elevated it 1 inch and the gain was almost as good as 10 feet and no pre-amp was needed

I have several very low Beverage antennas and what I find is that the enhanced performance seems to be caused by the low Beverage's inability to hear local man made noise very well. When I use the no

Hello, When I think of a Sloper Antenna I think of it as a technique of loading the tower. The tower has about 1/2 of the current and does half of the radiating. If the tower is grounded the current

Hello, I experimented with the cone of silence many years ago with a very low Beverage (1 inch high). To my amazement I could easily see when I had reached the correct length. The ZL and VK signals w

Hello, On my 300 foot Beverage that is 1 inch high the length was about 300' even. I presume that the low height caused some velocity factor reaction. The null was very obvious when compared to the n

Re; AA2MF You can model the tower including all antennas on the tower and with the inverted L in the model using EZNEC. Change all of the sources to zero amplitude except the inverted L. You then can

A single vertical can be modeled with EZNEC and if you lean the vertical slightly at the terrain angle you can see the result. To see the result just tilt your head a little and pretend the vertical
