[TowerTalk] Unique Short Radial Challenge - N5OT Question

[john at kk9a.com]

I seem to recall K9AY recommending four short radials, maybe 8 feet long. 
Perhaps someone with a manual handy can confirm this.  If you have a poor 
ground, you may want to use a receive antenna that is not ground dependant, 
such as a pennant.

I have a second question about short radials: If you were to improve the
ground under a K9AY loop by using radials, how many and how long?  160m
only.  Thanks,
