Re: [TowerTalk] Ground mounting vs roof mounting verticals

[Roger Parsons <ve3zi@yahoo.com>]

I have an old AV3 10-15-20m vertical. I used to have it on top of a 20' pole 
with 4 radials for each band. Compared to my A4S it was so bad as to be useless 
- although the match was good on every band.

I moved it to ground level with a lot of radials. It is now about 6dB worse 
than the beam which makes it a useful second antenna.

YMMV
