Greetings fellow Topbanders:Please, an antenna question. For the last several years I have use a Inverted L on 160. Rscently I became able to run more power (from 450 watts up to 1 KW output. At that point it appeared that I had developed an arc somewhere in my antenna system, so I abandoned the inverted L for shunt feed of my tower(which many years ago, I used successfully), I have been able to successfully match the Shunt Fed tower using a Omega Match' So my question is: How effective is a Shunt Fed tower, AND, is it more effective than the Inverted L? 73, Mike, W5UC _________________ Topband Reflector |
