I am using a T antenna fed as a folded monopole (toploaded) with 4 elevated radials. This has the advantage of being a good direct match to 50 ohm coax. The models I have run show little difference b

Stan, One reason for a "U" is since you have dual downleads with the far end grounded and the feed end fed against ground you have only one fourth the ground losses. By the way I used airdux coils at

Hi Curt, Even if we (incorrectly) assume all losses are "connection" losses that show up at the feedpoint and the U reduces feedpoint current by a factor of two, the system losses only drop in half.

Well... it was supposed to be an inverted L on 160 but as it worked out, the terminal end is absolutely vertical and is 25' from the ground. so if you look at the antenna from a relief view, it looks

This shape will have a lower feedpoint resistance than an inverted L. My quick EZNEC model shows 32 ohms for the U vs 62 ohms for the L, including 5 ohms of ground loss, with the open end 15 feet awa

I used an inverted U for several years and worked a lot of DX with it. In my case it was 60' up, 60' over and 60' down. One variation of the U I never tried was terminating the end into a ground syst

Hello Everyone, I've checked into plans for an inverted "U" antenna and have a question about the insulated wire thrown over the tree. Is there anyway to minimize the loss of the wire touching the tr
