Am planning on putting up a vertical for 40 and 80 meters and wondered
if anyone could offer some advice on which of the following would be
the preferred setup.
Butternut HF2V or a home brew 32 ft vertical with a trap. Above the
trap I can add about 6 more ft vertical but then would have to go
horizontal (ala inverted L) for the remainder of the antenna. Either
antenna would be ground mounted. Also, if one of these ideas is less
prone to cause RFI/TVI, that would be an important consideration since
I live in the burbs and don't need and more WAA awards.
Thanks in advance,
