Hi I am planning putting up a vertical (130ft tower) insulated form the ground...of course. But a the place I want to place it, there is much snow....at least 30 inches of snow at the end of the seas

How about just a skirt, made of plastic of wood that goes around the tower and is tall enough to be above the snow line. Plastic sheet might just do the job. Raj, N2RD -- Rajiv Dewan, N2RD n2rd@arrl.

ORIGINAL MESSAGE: -- REPLY FOLLOWS -- I can't speak to verticals, but snow has affected every other kind of antenna I have had, so I would say yes, do something. How about a heater? Bill W6WRT ______

Since radials laying on the ground are not length sensitive, and elevated radial ARE length sensitive, I would say that you should just lay them on the ground and let the snow do whatever it wants. E

One guys experience: When the snow covers the base of my 160M vertical the resonance point drops by about 20 KHz (from about 1830 to 1810) or so. Wet snow seems to do more than dry snow. Since the ba

The base of the vertical is a very low impedance point, and snow will not have any effect. I routinely (every winter) see 6+ feet snow depth surrounding my 4-element array and the monster 160/80M ver

Is it a base loaded vertical? The base of the coil is a low impedance point but the antenna side of the coil is high.... so proximity of even a good dielectric to the element in a short base loaded
