Topband: Fw: Re: Radials over a stone wall

[Tom W8JI]

Just an out of the box thought...
Anyone guess what would happen if the radials going over
the wall were coax shielded ?

I wouldn't sign that either, given the fact it is impossible to shield a 
conductor going up over a wall without nearly perfect grounds on each side 
of the wall.
:-)

If we had a nearly perfect ground at each side of the wall, there wouldn't 
be any need to go over it with a wire.   :-)

It's like that "silly stuff" about shielding a ground lead, or shielding the 
vertical Beverage feed connection wire. We keep adding shield after shield 
an the common mode just keeps moving out the the next layer we add.

That might make a good article for 73 Magazine, if they were still around.
