Mike,

Thats good stuff ! I am putting up a 160 with 4 elevated radials at 14 feet (would like to get them higher
but they are the least visible at 14 feet to my wife :-)
I am anxious to see how it works.

thanks for the reference info!

I was amazed at how well just two elevated radials work here, though I plan on four someday. www.w0btu.com/160_meters.html#inv-l_antenna <http://www.w0btu.com/160_meters.html#inv-l_antenna>

    Do the 160 verticals with 4 radials elevated at 20 feet,
    individually outperform the other vertical with 60 radials on the
    ground ?
