I've seen it go both ways, as well. There are some hams whose wives want to deny them any activity that does not involve them and any kids. In fairness to both sides, I've known hams who spend every

Believe me, I have more radios than I can use, and a wife who has no interest in CW. I was always one of those people, especially as a VE, who thought that anyone who wouldn't man up and learn the co

Frank, you need permission to play basketball? The flagpole on the wall will work. Make the flagstaff out of fiberglass, gray PVC conduit, or even a varnished broomstick. Spiral wind wire on it and c

I did that once. I ran 100 feet of coax out to the ATAS-120 on the back of my car. It worked better than the attic long wire, but about as well as the attic fan dipole. Frank ?I talked with a ham in

The ground rod will work, but it will introduce more resistance to the antenna feed than radials. It will tend to make the matching easier, but the efficiency poorer. The hazard with a ground rod is

Absolutely, you would need a counterpoise. An eight foot ground wire would only function as a tuned RF conductor at 10m where it is a quarter wave long, but it would be high impedance at the shack mo

Stuart, I agree in spirit with what you say and having worked portable all the time for nearly 50 years, I am a huge believer in the benefit of a quarter wave counterpoise, but... There are some inte

I keep reading the RF energy gets absorbed and converted to heat in the resister. The counterpoise provides the return path, not the earth ground, I think. See one here: http://bwantennas.com/ama/vee

A quarter wavelength monopole with a really good counterpoise/ ground radial system has a feed point radiation resistance of around 37 ohms and very little loss resistance. That will give you an SWR

Precisely, and the bandwidth of that match with the ground rod will be much wider than with a radial system. 10 ohms is a very good ground rod, and one driven into basement fill is likely to be consi

I remember a sprial wound antenna in the ARRL handbook,perhaps in the '70s.  You need one wavelength of wire wound on a dowel about 2" dia.  The length of a 20 meter antenna would be just over two to

To illustrate Ken's point, here are some measurements I made on the feedpoint resistance of my 160m 40ft top-loaded vertical as I added radials. Rrad for this antenna should be about 5 Ohms. 6ft Grou
