It would indeed. Yes, their signal was VERY weak when you could hear it at all. What were they using for an antenna? 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ _____________________

There is much to be learned by a study of N6LF's excellent work on radials. It's a combination of modeling and careful measurement of real antennas. I've done talks at Pacificon and for various ham c

Yes all this is true but do not forget the actual radial length will be shorter than 0.4 Wavelength when on the ground. It may be electrically 0.4 wavelength but physically it is considerable shorter

This is from the ARRL antenna book: -- Practical Suggestions For Vertical Ground Systems At least 16 radials should be used if at all possible. Experimental measurements and calculations show that w

So, if you had a 5-10 meter tall radiator, being used on 80m or 160m, there's not a lot to be gained by going longer than 15-20 meters for the radials. This often heard concept makes intuitive sense.

Rick, What you are saying is correct a short vertical requires a lower ground resistance for optimal performance and thus a more extensive number of long radials. Otherwise there is further compromis

Jim, Thank you, I may add some longer radials. There certainly is much confusion and conflicting information abounding when it comes to radials. In some cases this may be due to inadequate care taken

That advice comes from N6LF, but it is sort of reinforced by the much earlier table of radial lengths from the ARRL Antenna Book. Loss in radials is greatest where current is greatest, and that's nea
