Yes!
In my case ... 60 radials spaced 6 degrees apart .. then concentrations of ten radials at 1 degree each for Europe, Japan, South America, and VK/ZL ... works like gangbusters .. all I need now is to clean out the shack and put a new feedline out to the vertical again!

I believe the word "optimum" should be replaced with "sufficient".
My experience with verticals tells me that 100 radials works much better than 60, especially when concentrated in certain directions.


Concentrated in what direction?
Direction of interest?
