I am in the process of installing a U.S. Tower HDX 455 that will have a
Force 12 Magnum 280B, 80 meter yagi installed. There will also be a 40
meter yagi above that. There has been a recommendation that I run 3 quarter
wave length copper ground radials from the tower. Does anyone have any
experience with this other than obviously an improved electrical path for
lightning? I have no plans for turning the tower into a vertical. Thanks.
