[TowerTalk] Vertical vs Beam

[Bill Aycock]

As far as the subject of 1/2 wave verticals goes, the WWV site leaves out a 
LOT!
1. Where is the feed point?
2.  what is the feed point impedance?
3.  Are the lower ends of the "guys" grounded?
4. Why is it important that the Coax feeds do not cross?
Does anyone know?
Are the arrangements of the TTers with 1/2 wave verticals like WWV, and if 
not, why reference it?
