- Now that the flurry of Inverted U antennas is over, let me comment on the Lazy U for those that want a simple, effective antenna for 160m without the fuss of radials. This antenna was originally deve

- Hi Denny, I'm grateful for your reply, and your interest in modeling the Lazy U. My model on EZNEC shows it to have a gain of 2.77 dbi with an input impedance of 43 - j42000. By removing the lower 90

- I love Ham Radio and the Hams in it. What could have been received as a frivolous question, is input resistance the same as radiation resistance, was answered by Hams from Italy, Germany, and across

- In September 1971 when I was W2MB, Ham Radio published an article by me on a top loaded vertical for 80 meters: it applies to 160 meters. The antenna was 1/4 wave in length, with a six foot diameter,

- Hi Gang, Nobody has mentioned it, but there was a 160m band back in the '30s, but was not DX oriented, or there were no or few DX stations on. As an 18 year old kid on AM in '38 with 100w and a Zepp
