[TowerTalk] How Helically Wound Verticals Really Work (was : Vertical dipoles)

[Dennis OConnor]

 Modeling is only a numerical simulation of the real world... Adding series resistance in the form of more turns of wire in a given linear space is vastly unlikely to increase efficiency in the real world..

Anytime a model produces results that are not borne out by the group experience of those of us practicing THE ART OF THE ANTENNA, it makes the model results suspect until definitely proven otherwise...
