You can hear all kinds of things presented as fact, even
when they aren't.

Nowhere did I opine that it would meet or exceed an appropriate radial field... I personally use radials, not copper plates, but then again my back yard is a half mile long by a quarter mile wide... Yours also appears to be somewhere in that neighborhood, but not everyone else has that luxury... The gentleman did say that he had 'maybe' a meter of space in one, or more, directions...
Left to my druthers he and I would have a discussion on a pair of elevated Moxon radials as opposed to a plate - but I simply wanted to throw the plate idea into the mix...
cheers ... denny
