- Aside from bad puns about trunk lines and branch circuits... My inverted-L relies on a stout redwood (these aren't trees, they're wooden pyramids) to support the vertical wire. At the feed point, the

- Many years ago W7EL wrote a comment about tree sucking RF; he thought it was important but never followed thru with a study that I am aware of. Dont confuse with Tree Hugging Wackos. My own expeiment

- The military has done extensive studies regarding RF absorption by foliage. 20 years ago while in Coast Guard Radioman school I recall some instruction regarding this; my memory is a bit dim but what

- I have only an inverted L-antenna per W1BB on 160, and it is slung over a tree. The vertical part is about 24 meters, the rest is sloping down on the other side. The feedpoint is at another tree 8 me

- "Don't sweat the small stuff" I remember this too from US Army Signal School, fall 1974. However, the key factor was frequency. Since most platoon and company communications is VHF, this was the freq

- For any errant VHFers who live here, THE VHF/UHF DX BOOK edited by G3SEK, published for the RSGB and available from the ARRL, contains an absorption(db) vs frequency (30-3000 mHz) chart for foliage.

- It seems to me a tree would be a useless antenna. I've never observed trees to affect FS readings except at VHF and microwave. The attenuation is greater as frequency increases. Roy Lewallen W7EL sai
