Hi Bob,

Sources go in Wires. For this antenna, the source goes at the bottom end 
of the vertical wire. Click on the Sources tab. It will ask how far from 
End 1 in %. If End 1 is at the bottom, say 0%.

BTW, it's good to make all segments the same length, especially near a 
source, so tweak lengths of either the radials or the vertical wire. You 
can see segment length in View Antenna by clicking on each wire.

Especially with verticals, it's important to get Ground characteristics 
to match yours. Do that on the Ground Descrip tab, then right click in 
the window that opens and select from that opens.
