I have been researching the inverted L for 160, and have received much helpful information. - Thanks! Today I stumbled across a document regarding the 1/2 wave inverted L. Has anyone done a side-by-s

Here is a link to the document. http://www.mfjenterprises.com/antennatalk7.php There is very little information, but don't recall seeing seeing the 1/2 wave L in my antenna books. Art _______________

If one is not talking about ham implementations of the commercial AM BC paradigm and their big verticals over very well done dense radial fields, the models can do quite poorly. Go ask W7EL. But then

Many years ago, a friend of mine used to operate on 160m with vertical antennas suspended on a big Weather Balloon filled with hydrogen . . . After using Quarter-wave verticals for a few months, he c

Yup! The lack of a radial system explains why the 1/2w vertical worked better. :-) 73, Mike www.w0btu.com Many years ago, a friend of mine used to operate on 160m with vertical antennas suspended on

Years ago I tried a a weather balloon filled with hydrogen from a hired canister. The balloon's spherical shape made it highly susceptible to being disturbed by even a fairly mild breeze. In my case

Save yourself some wire, and either search back through the Topband archives or model your very tall vertical. :-) Basically, it'll waste a lot of RF at unwanted high angles. 73, Mike www.w0btu.com .

Well it is understandable. The current maximum in the half-wave antenna is lifted well above ground level. Had there been a radial system it would have had to employ very long radials, for most of th

I've read that the minimum lengths for ground radials is no shorter than the height of the antenna and that 50% of ground losses occur in the first one-quarter wavelength distance from the antenna. T

That is probably true but ONLY for an antenna that is 0.25 wavelength high where the current maximum is at the base feedpoint, right where those radials, also the same 0.25 wavelength in their length

A 180 or 190 degree vertical radiator presents a few different problems compared to one 90 degrees long, due to the high voltage at the feedpoint. You can have ground loss there, but since it is more
