Is there any difference in the reception of low angle signals between using a vertically polarised active dipole mounted close to ground or a ground mounted active mono-pole using a 4 foot ground rod

Andy, Haven't seen any replies to this, perhaps there were none. If you received anything "off-list" could you post a summary here please. 73 to all Trevor G0KTN _____________________________________

Yes there is a difference in putting an amplifier in the middle of a shortened Hi-Z element rather than at the end using high impedance buffers. The radiation pattern remains virtually the same. You
Many thanks for the replies; Lee K7TJR has made a convincing aurgument for using an active mono-pole. I am very close to resolving the IOP3 amplifier degregation by using 4 x 1N4448 diodes connected
