1. Topband: 160 Vertical (score: 1)

Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2002 13:02:09 -0400
I haven't seen where anyone has suggested this yet, so here goes: If I had a 200 foot tower, didn't want to upset the horizontal arrays already positioned, and wanted to maximize capability, there's

One approach I learned from W3YOZ avoids soldering radials, which is time consuming and ineffective unless great pains are taken to completely waterproof each soldered connection. Marty installs a st

Don, that's cool, but honestly, I don't see any need to solder radials. If I did, I'd go all the way and use silver solder, like used in air conditioning repair. Why waste time soldering? You don't g

4. Topband: More on 160 dipoles (score: 1)
Author: k4iq@worldnet.att.net (John B. Mitchell)
Date: Fri, 10 May 2002 08:46:37 -0400
Bill, et al, Interesting thread. My experience still tells me that fairly high dipoles or inverted vees are within a few db of single-element verticals over nearly all openings, all conditions. I've

I don't believe in the Vertical/Horizontal hemisphere theory; and I think belief, rather than empiricism, is what it calls for. My "absolute disaster" of a horizontal (inverted vee) at 100 feet took

I think you guys should forward all these ideas to TT. I talked with them today and the radio is not finished yet; they may incorporate some of your design ideas. They did say they'd have a prototype

7. Topband: Number of radials - elevated vs grounded (score: 1)
Author: k4iq@worldnet.att.net (John B. Mitchell)
Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2002 15:38:00 +0000
I too have been experimenting with elevated radials at the ridgetop tower here at K4IQ. The ground has too many rocks and old tree stumps and root systems from being cleared five years ago to use in-

Date: Sun, 13 Jan 2002 17:06:22 +0000
I listened for this one when I saw the spot. The suffix clued me that this was probably a slim. I'd be interested if anyone else heard it. Hard to believe it could be 589 there and unheard anywhere e

Hi Dave, My comments in support of RM-10352 were filed 1-17 under my name. I perused the most recent comments just now and found they were running approximately 10 to 1 in favor, a good sign. 73 John

Hi Bill, Last time, my post didn't make it, so maybe you can relay if this one has problems. Briefly, let's look at other bands to see how this will work. What happens from 3790-3800 during domestic

Phil, I'm not any kind of expert, and my advice is anecdotal, primarily, but I'd say if you can only put up a few radials, make them elevated if at all possible! Even if they're only 8 feet or so, th
