Hi Pete. Modeling your antenna with the horizontal wire 30' above GND an EZNEC sweep across the band shows R varying from 27 to 34 ohms with X varying from -j55 to +j55 ohms. Modeling your antenna wi

An EZNEC model of your antenna (height of 35') shows it to be resonant at 1865 kHz. The minimum SWR was adjusted to 2:1 by adding GND loss of 8 ohms. SWR is all you need to tune the antenna. Is minim

Hi Doug, for now I will assume you mean an inverted-L with apex at 1/8 wavelength. Let's see what EZNEC shows for a top hat vertical at the extreme against the inverted-vee. We can refine the model w

Are the offending GFCI circuit breakers Eaton brand? They are known to trip from HF transmissions and it is reported that Eaton will supply "HAM" circuit breakers at no cost. I can post Eaton contact

NH6V and I had another successful near-ocean ground plane portable operation on a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Local RFI was non-existent and all we had we a little bit of generator ignition

It seems that padding the element capacitance as needed for equal capacitance would help. Dave KH6AQ _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector

The paper *A Closer Look at Vertical Antennas With Elevated Ground Systems*, by Rudy, N6LF goes into great detail on the subject. Referring to Figure 13, which compares Ga (Average Gain) for radial h

The HEBA appears to be the same animal as the CFA (Crossed Field Antenna) patented by Dr. Kabbary and M.C. Hately in the late 1980s. As the HEBA Model 103 Performance Analysis says, *" WWAS accomplis

The HEBA/CFA for MF AM broadcasting (there was one planned for an LF BC station on the Isle of Man) has been commercially tested only for ground wave coverage as one would for a full size BC monopole
