1. [TowerTalk] Radials over salt water? (score: 1): Author: K3BU@aol.com (K3BU@aol.com); Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2001 09:20:45 EST; Talking about radials. Has anyone done some real life tests and comparison between few radials (2,4,8) and many (60, 120) when over salt water or marsh (or soaked salty beach)? The point of question; /archives//html/Towertalk/2001-01/msg00195.html (8,245 bytes)

I shunt fed a 130 foot tower with some beams on it. I took the radials to the salt water and terminated them to old aluminum from destr; /archives//html/Towertalk/2001-01/msg00204.html (8,772 bytes)

(score: 1): Author: alwilliams@olywa.net (Al Williams); Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2001 13:22:39 -0800; Can Towertalkers explain why antennas over salt water is such an improvement? It seems to me that if all of the RF directed downward is reflected upward, by the salt water, that is only a 3db improve; /archives//html/Towertalk/2001-01/msg00208.html (10,055 bytes)

Salt water "ground" provides low loss return in the immediate vicinity of the (vertical) antenna, which reduces losses in the ground, efficiency is better especia; /archives//html/Towertalk/2001-01/msg00209.html (9,375 bytes)

Youneed at least 64 1/4 wave long radials. In salt water you can throw out a 6 foot bare wire and have an excellent ground.
