- Greetings All: I just finished building a vertical RX array for 160 meters using K7TJR's Hi-Z pre-amps. However, it looks like I am getting some re-radiation from my Inverted L. The nearest vertical

- Mike You did it right, the float part of the inverted L become 1/4 element, and it does not reradiate, before with the ground it was a resonant element. The noise reduction depends on the direction o

- Mike, Interaction starts to be noticeable when the coupled tower or antenna is roughly 2/3 the size needed for resonance, and increases rapidly as the size approaches resonance. For example, I have a

- Wow, I have received numerous comments on my question, and the results are unanimous. That being to let the Inverted L float when in the receive mode. This is fairly easy to implement, and shall be d
