Jim, I totally understand antenna return currents in an unbalanced
antenna....having once built a vertical with 110 radials.
My current 135' end-fed inverted-L is a superb performer with my fan of
radials laying in the backyard.
So let me ask a practical question:
Can I attach my radial system (which I would disconnect from the copper
pipe driven into the ground) to my L-network coupler and ISOLATE THAT
COUPLER FROM GROUND WITH A BALUN?
That would separate the RF ground from the Shack (lightning ground).
BTW, I have a spark-gap lightning arrester outside my shack window.
Thanks
