I was not sure how folded radials would work in my small backyard while installing my radial system for my W9AD vertical multiband phase system. On antenna one, I had 20 radials working well that wer

N0AH described his radials, ending with: Paul, every time I see you drive by, I honk & wave, but you don't seem to notice. I have seen at least a half dozen different cars around here with an "NOAH"

Brett, An old AM broadcast engineer I know is also a ham and I have chatted with him on 80 meters... He uses a 1/4 wl. vertical antenna... He has a 4 foot square (4' x 4'), 10 ga., copper plate with

K8DO added on query about merit of longer radials on (or in ground) folded back when in a tight space: I would imagine that chap had good soil conductivity, especially some distance away. First two m

You can hear all kinds of things presented as fact, even when they aren't. ** quote: "I mention this as an item of interest for those who cannot put out radials that perhaps the cost of a copper plat

I tend to agree with Tom here, although, the plate is a LOT closer to the ground than Tom's truck (unless it's one of those nifty dual use planter/antenna base types without wheels<grin>) Just ballpa

Reactance doesn't matter.... away... call it 1.5 ohms reactance 4MHz, about 120 the ground that truck. since it isn't dissipative and simply causes the antenna to "shift frequency". The resistance is

True.. but if you had a very huge series reactance to ground, then not much current is going to flow through that path, so the actual loss (for that part) will be low. Of course, it may well be that
