Topband: K2AV 160m Folded Counterpoise Antenna - New Details Posted

[w7dra at juno.com]

 very interesting, the FCP is a way to allow the real estate challenged
(no place for a true ground radial system, or a long high vertical
antenna) to get something that will do more than just warm worms 

i would think the FCP would help those who do not have the opportunity
for a 3/8 or 1/2 wave inverted L or vertical to not burn up all the power
in their back yard barbecue  area.

my 120 up 130 out has a very driving point high impedance, so the current
going into the counter poise would be very small compared to what would
go into it with a 1/4 wave radiating element
