I am right now using an inverted L which is spaced about 4 feet away from my tower. The vertical leg is about 85 feet. I only have 6 radials at the present time Now here is the question The horizonta

Herb, Your best bet is to add another 50ft and make a T rather than inverted L. The L will only be of use on very local (out to 200 miles) QSOs. With a T it will remove the Horizontal and I suggest u

Completely agree with Tom. Tom didn't elaborate on just how BAD that loss can be. Think of your L and your tower as being two windings on the same transformer. If the base of your tower is just in th

Sloper is really not the same thing as a parallel vertical wire at four feet as with the original poster. The vertical wire parallel to the tower at four feet has a much higher degree of coupling to

I have been looking at locations on my property to install an Inverted L for 160. How important is it for the top part to be led away at a right angle? I was considering running it vertically 80ft, t

Art, from what Ive read, I understand that the non-vertical part of the Inverted L does not have to be completely horizontal - it can slope with little detriment to its radiation pattern. I have two

The most important part of an inverted L is the counterpoise, be it raised radials, buried or on-ground radials or an FCP. Be sure you can do a counterpoise well. Otherwise the counterpoise can be a

I was considering running it vertically 80ft, then about 25 feet at a 45 degree up angle and 25 feet at a 45 degree down angle, over the top of the supporting tree. That shape should work just fine,

FWIW, for 160 I used my old 97-foot Rohn 25 tower, with 2 tribanders and a 40M 2-el on it, shunt fed at about 50 feet.  I had a pair of 300 uf variable caps at the bottom, one in series with the feed
