[TowerTalk] Conclusion, G5RV vs. Dipole

[n4kg@juno.com]

"4. The G5RV is probably a better antenna for NVIS because of the
vertical 
component of the parallel transmission line."   K6HI

HUH?

First, a good transmission line will NOT radiate so there should be 
NO vertical component.

Second, vertical radiation will be primarily at low angles, 
NOT what you want for NVIS.
