There is no advantage to making ground radials resonant. Resonance contributes nothing to the efficiency of the system. Those that believe otherwise have not spent any time with a calibrated Field St

Ground radials ........ the more the better....... to a point of economics and dimishing returns. As to the number, 60 will be better than 30 but only very little is to be gained by going to 120. As

Yes, indeed, it is most certainly a matter of perspective. Now, my perspective is this: 3 dB is Double. If I could double my signal, as inexpensively as burying 60 extra pieces of the old wire I hav

I have to disagree that there is no advantage to having radials resonant or of a controlled length.. I have made extensive measurements of the surge impedance of radials ( by measuring single radials

If I could double my signal, as inexpensively as burying 60 extra pieces of the old wire I have laying around, I would most certainly do it in a heartbeat. If you've got the money and are willing to

Having had considerable experience in burying radials, I would only add this one lesson I learned the hard way.... If possible, use insulated wire, as heavy as you can afford, and try to keep it "nic

Did you study any of the many excellent technical articles published by ARRL on this topic? Or did you simply wait for others to agree on a simple answer? Understanding is achieved by serious study.

Gary, To clarify, I was referring to Field Strength, measured in Millivolts per Meter, which is the standard expression. It takes 6 db to double the measured signal strength, which is equivalent to o

An excellent enhancement to any radial system is to simply plant spinach around the antenna. It is high in iron and greatly improves ground conductivity. n4lq -- Original Message -- From: "Jim Brown"
