[TowerTalk] Radial question

[Jim Brown]

There is much to be learned by a study of N6LF's excellent work on 
radials. It's a combination of modeling and careful measurement of real 
antennas.

I've done talks at Pacificon and for various ham clubs about getting on 
160M, and about 90% of it is about radial systems and antennas.  It 
summarizes material in the ARRL Antenna Book, work by N6LF and K3LC, 
W8JI, and K2AV.
