I'm thinking about antennas for next year.
Are the radials of a ground plane antenna included in the total wire length?
How does one calculate the radial length if it is a wire mesh eg. chicken wire?
If the radials are included does this still apply if they are laid on
the ground - a ground mounted vertical with earth radials?
Is a counterpoise allowed in addition to the antenna wire length?
In the rules it states that - 'All sections are multi operator' - does
this preclude me from going it alone next year?
