[UK-CONTEST] 20m vertical - more

[Chris G3SJJ]

I just had a look on his website. It looks good

He does say 4 radials and they slope to 10ft. I suspect that is critical 
to get the matching correct. And yes, I might try one for 30m now!

Its a 16 foot vertical on a 16 foot metal mast (insulated apart), inner coax to the top end outer to the bottom mast, then a 6foot length of coax it connected?across the terminals (Inner to top braid to bottom) and shorted (inner and outer soldered together)at the end this hangs down but kept 2 inches from the mast. The mast is then earthed and 3 radials place at the middle at the feed point. It gives an overall length of 5/8th ?
