I know K9YC, Jim and some others, will agree with me. I*f you wish to
play with antennas, please make a purchase of the ARRL Antenna
Handbook a primary consideration. Regardless of how you feel about
the org. *
Read it cover to cover, making notes in the margins and dog-earing
pages of importance. Put it where you can grab it easily for answers.
You'll be happy you did.
Absolutely, George. And some of the best advice I got from a friend
and fellow EE was to get seriously into antenna modeling as a learning
tool. I've always been serious about measurement of things I'm working
on, from my long retired career in pro audio, and in ham radio. It has
been my experience that if you feed NEC and accurate model, including
but not limited to soil conditions, it will give you very good
answers. But like much of life, it's also garbage in, garbage out. :)
And when I do learn things, I often try to share them, by writing them
up in detail and doing talks at ham events.
