Topband: Magnetic Slot Antenna

[Tom Rauch]

I'm having problems modeling this antenna with any gain.

My EZnec model with high accuracy ground and medium soil shows 17% 
efficiency (mostly due to ground loss) and about zero dBi gain in the 
best direction.

If anyone has a file that works with noticeable gain (over average 
ground, not perfect ground) using a high accuracy ground, would you 
please e-mail me with the details?73, Tom W8JI
