- Hi all Today I put up a 30 meter vertical hung from a rope between two fir trees. The top is at about 45 feet and I am using elevated radials (of course). Tomorrow I am going to put another one out o

- Dave, I have often wondered how a vertical would play if mounted on top of a metal roof. Could the metal roof panels be used for the 'ground' instead of radials? It would seem that the roof would act

- I would imagine you could use just about anything for your radials. I'm getting ready to move, for several years I had a 1/4 wave 80m vertical that was just a wire snaked up a tree. The tree was righ

- HI Rod A friend of mine here, W7IVX, put a HF2V on top of a barn with a metal roof and it played real well. You have to make sure the panels are all bonded together with jumpers. It is a good grounp

- A metal roof is indeed a wonderful groundplane for a vertical antenna. In the early 1980's I installed a 35' marine whip antenna and an automatic tuner on the top of an aircraft hanger in Sacramento,

- I'm going to be phasing a pair of verticals (HF2V) on a small lot. Should each vertical's set of radials be isolated from each other or would it be OK to allow them to overlap. Or, would it even be m

- They should be bonded at the cross points... Also look up a copy of the ARRL antenna book, and look at the section covering the program called simplefeed1... You will be happy you did that... :) -- T

- I hope, to add some amplification to David's reply, I would add that basically, when you connect to ground, you have connected to anything else that is also connected to ground. As an addendum, I wou
