I used a half wave vertical on 40m above 130 radials 15-30m long. This vertical was tested for half a year against a straight dipol at 30m. There was not any path where the vertical came near the per

While the current maxima may be 1/4 wave above ground the high E field end of the 1/2 wave vertical (or vertical dipole) is very close to the ground. As a result a 1/2 wave vertical sustains substan

My experience has been as follows: I have a half-sloper hanging off a 64 foot self-supporter for 80 meters. This acts as a vertical. I have an inverted vee about 250 feet away on a 48 foot tower. Mos

I did. I use it every time I'm on 40m. If it had zero current flowing into the base, no power would be radiated :-) I'll have to check again to make sure, but I'm pretty sure disconnecting the groun

As far as the subject of 1/2 wave verticals goes, the WWV site leaves out a LOT! 1. Where is the feed point? 2. what is the feed point impedance? 3. Are the lower ends of the "guys" grounded? 4. Why

Bill, I have used this type antenna for several years. It is a very common VHF/UHF antenna because of its simplicity. It makes a great 17 meter antenna and is easy to construct without a lot of real

Jim I have used that type. In fact-- my first non-ducky 2M antenna was made on an SO238 panel mount, hung from the ceiling light fixture in the shack. However there is confusion about the difference

The radials were added at WWVH after field strength testing showed that the half wave verticals failed to produce the expected field strength due to e-field losses in the ground below the bottom end
