A few weeks ago I raised my topband inverted L which have an 62 feet vertical section and uses two elevated radials that are bent almost 90 degrees 10 meters out from the base. My location is on the

Many emails and thank you. With a very short feed line (15) I presume I have to put a capacitor in line and tune the antenna that way. Added more coax and that didn't work. K3 still shuts down to 50

Brad, how do you know? How do you (anyone, for that matter) know how well the antenna works? Just for kicks, let's say somehow we KNEW the antenna didn't work well. Say someone (to play a prank on yo

I would like to know opinions on whether to go with a ground radial system or if an elevated counterpoise would work better. Thanks Darl NA8W Darl, I've just finished an Inverted-L for topband, using

The work I have not seen done (hint, hint, N6LF) is to quantify the effect of starting with the limited count, very short radial field ( 8, 12, or 16 radials) then as you add to the radial count make

About, "...So am I to leave well enough alone or should we add more radials? This is...(etc.)" The more radials the better. Expect a feedpoint Z of 14 ohms or so with a lot of them. Just use a shunt

John, SWR is not the best criterion for determining the optimum number of radials. In fact if your impedance is 50ohms and no reactance you still have a lot of ground losses. I have a very similar an
