The path between earth and radials is capacitive. The wire can have enamel or even insulation and still work fine. They don't need to be buried but they usually are. The reason is protection from damage, not some improvement in performance. 73 Rob K5UJ _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list TowerTalk@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |
