Thanks to all who helped with my questions about the inverted "L" I plan to
erect soon.
I have just one more question (i think). This whole antenna will be
constructed on the
side a hill with about a 10 degree incline.
Question:
Should I install the radiator with a 10 degree tilt to compensate for the
slant or will this
tend to cause an elevated radiation pattern on one side and a lowered
radiation pattern on the other
side? If I install he vertical radiator straight up how will this affect
the performance with skewed
radials (80 degrees on one side and 100 degrees on the other)? I think I
can visualize this in my head
I just need confirmation that I am thinking correctly.
Thanks,
Bill
