Interesting. Recently I tried to shorten my 80 meter dipole by wrapping the end . It is bare wire, and when I calculated how much I'd have to wrap, it actually moved it up a lot farther than I antici

I don't think bare wire is required. My current temporary antenna for 75 / 80 is an inverted V that, depending on SSB / CW, I simply change the length of the antenna by wrapping the Home Depot #14 st

After 2 weeks of testing I have found the following out about this antenna. 1. If you use #12 insulated wire and use the 246/Fmhz your antenna is too long. 2. If you cut the antenna for a good swr it

Greetings OM, I'm wondering if you used tuned radials? I had a similar problem at my old QTH when I put up a 160m inverted L, prior to tuning the radials. I used the formula found in the Butternut te

From My experience with 3 different sets of 160M coaxial inverted Ls, I found that in general the higher the vertical component, the better the antenna will perform for dx. My first and 3rd sets (I u

My take on the subject from many years of 80/160M operation at different locations is as follows: Superb to very good ground such as a salt water marsh, a fresh water swamp with plenty of dead vegata

It's important to understand that the function of radials is to act as a return for antenna current and increase the EFFICIENCY. They do NOT lower the angle of radiation -- that happens with actual E

Anyone who is concerned with the difference in antenna efficiency with respect to elevated radials VS. ground mounted radials (assuming you have a choice) should re-read Frank, W3LPL's excellent post

Frank has the good fortune of having decent ground conductivity, not all of us have that luxury. Carl KM1H _______________________________________________ ____________________________________________

I dont need to Google anything. I suggest that you do the reading on what happens to the near field elevation pattern as a function of ground resistance. If you need assistance consult with a broadca

Better ground conductivity would help the raise the efficiency of an antenna using a raised radial installation (with 4 radials 15 feet off the ground for 1.8 MHz) more than one using ground mounted

I dont remember the details from NEC, Dean Straw, N6BV, did the modeling when he lived in the next town. All I can say was that going elevated made a huge performance improvement. Carl KM1H _________
