- I don't believe this is much better than a plain wire. And that is not really very good. On frequencies where the ground conductor is a quarter wavelength long, or an odd multiple of a quarter wavele

- Steve, It never ceases to amaze me how many old wives tales and utter nonsense there is floating around with regard to "grounding" a ham station. Part of the problem is that the term "ground" is used

- _________________________________________________________ Right on, Keith. RF energy is expensive to generate. Why would anyone want to use it to heat up dirt? Get it up in the air where it belongs.

- Steve, Keith, and List Members, Keith, you have really hit the nail with this one. So did Ian, G3SEK, in another reply to Steve's posting. I would just like to add a few comments. First, I was a seco
