- All this discussion of HF2V, radials, etc. causes me to wonder: if the inverted "L" is so great for 160, why isn't it used on 40 and 80? 73 Gene N7YW

- 80? The main problem on 160M is the size of a 1/4 WL vertical (130 ft). The inverted L is a useful alternative that allows shorter supports to be used for that band. One down side to the inverted L i

- I'm assuming you mean the common L, which is vertically polarized. On 160, a wave can penetrate deeper and cut a larger cross-section of earth. Because of that, losses are generally less. The best e

- A practical dipole has a clear transmitting advantage on 40 in most cases because it is easy to make high in terms of the operating wavelength, while a practical Inverted L or vertical has the clear

- I compared a 90 foot high inverted vee on 20 meters to a ground mounted vertical. About 3/4 of the time, they were too close to tell apart. The rest of the time, the vee was a few dB better. One time
