Hello TopBanders, I have a (probable) dumb question about my radial system. This summer i got rid of my inverted L antenna and put up a shunt fed ,toploaded, tower to use on 160. Not having time to l

Quoting Vanderydt Theo <ON4ATW@skynet.be>: Not having time to lay down radials right away i tuned the vertical without and got it at 1.2/1 SWR X 0 and about 50 Ohms. > Today I drove a copper rod into

Where are you making your measurement -- in the shack, or at the base of the antenna? When you added radials, you probably reduced the total impedance of the antenna a bit (that is, wire plus radial

Two additional points: 1.) The shunt wire itself is a transmission line. This is what often messes people up when they try to phase shunt-fed antennas. 2.) The resistance at the current loop in the
