Topband: radial plate height

[donovanf at starpower.net]

Hi Jorge,

one degree of phase on 160 meters is 18 inches.   Any dimension less
than 18 inches will have no significant affect on 160 meters.   Your
ground platew will work perfectly at 5 inches high

Hello

 

I am installing a DXE radial plate in the base of a vertical.

 

My doubt is if the heigh affect in something the performance.

 

I have it at 5 inches from ground, easy to work with it installing the
radials on the plate with nuts and bolts

 

Is any problem? It must be lower near the ground or not problem to have it
at 5 inches from ground?

 

Thanks,

Jorge
