It is amazing that a 66' long counterpoise can be effective on 160m. I put one in the woods at this condo location in NH yesterday and  heard an SM,  G6 and W9 and W0 stations on it last night and th

Thanks, but I realized that. I was just curious, because somewhere I read that the FCP had a slightly narrower bandwidth than a couple of elevated radials. 73, Mike www.w0btu.com Mike, The wider the

I think I see why you said what you did, Tom. If we replace the two elevated radials under our inverted-L with an FCP, and the bandwidth gets a little narrower, then yes, that doesn't prove that we'v

Mike - FWIW - I had a two tuned-radial 80 meter Inverted L hung in one of our redwood trees. Replaced it with an FCP and my bandwidth was almost the same. Quite happy with the FCP at this QTH. We are

We should get the idea "less BW indicates more efficiency" out of our minds. I think I see why you said what you did, Tom. If we replace the two elevated radials under our inverted-L with an FCP, and

Thanks, Jim. One thing seems certain, and that's that K2AV's FCP is plenty efficient enough to allow hams with HOAs or limited space to get on 160 with a really good signal. The FCP is on my long lis
