The recent discussion of ground radials has been a big help for me. There is just one other thing that bothers me. Most hams would probably either run buried PVC to put the feed line in, which would

Well, for instance, I just bought a Big SteppIR vertical. The company recommends a balun in some cases. They said it was to keep the RF from coming down the coax. They also sell this balun. Not being

Again, why a balun? StepIR should know better. If there are RF currents on the braid of the feedline you need to cut the braid, that is from an RF point of view. That you do with forexample ferrite b

I stacked about 10 torroids directly below the feed point of my wire vertical, but it didn't do a thing to choke the common mode currents. Seeing I can't have a heavy coax coil balun directly under m

Mike, I use a 4-square vertical array on 160 meters. Until last month, I had two elevated radials per vertical. That system had large stacks of ferrite cores ("baluns") on each feedline at the base o

Not really. Balance and UNbalanced in the context of antennas describes voltages, not currents. All two terminal feed systems, coaxial or parallel wires, have equal and opposite phase currents in ea

Sorry, Tom, I have a big problem about using the term "balun" around any antenna that cannot ever be "balanced" as you define it - and isn't even intended to be. I agree completely with your definiti
