- Hello Topbanders, I have a 65 ft tower with a TH7 and 40-2CD on top and 16 radials from 1/8 to 1/4 wavelength long. I have shunt fed it for 160m with a jumper across the 18 inch spaced shunt at abt 5

- Hello: Just a few thoughts. First and formost, MORE RADIALS! Never to many radials. No, I have never experienced a degradation of my 160 meter signal when I added another shunt for 80 meters. My towe

- Jim I have used my 78ft tower for years as a 160M shunt fed vertical. It has plenty of top loading - 5 el 20M KLM yagi and a Mosley 2 el 40. Works great on top band. I decided to try it for 80 and pu

- Hi Jim...My first shunt-fed tower was similar to yours (in Connecticut, 1978). It was 70 feet of Rohn 25 with a 204BA on top and a 4-el 15m Wilson yagi a few feet above that. As I recall the 160m shu

- Jim inquired: <big snip> and George replied: It makes perfect sense to me. Been there, done that. I wonder if this would be a good opportunity to play with some kind of decoupling stub arrangement. A

- I found the same problem with a 100' tower and a 10/15/20 Xmas tree 10 years ago. Could never get the 80 to really play. I then grid dipped the tower and found it was 1/4 wave reasonant on 1450KHz! I

- Tnx for the info Charles....I'll dig out that '94 article. I have found here that even elevated radials require more than 4 for me on 160. I have a pair of full size 1/4 wave for 160M hanging from th
