I know this has been discussed before, but mostly in the context of verticals in heavily wooded areas. I am wondering if anyone has thoughts on having just a couple of trees very close to a vertical

You might also add 1) The very nice antenna systems of some big 160 stations. Take a look at the links for K9DX and N6RO, for example. 2) It's worth running HFTA on your site. 3) The high noise level

The counter argument to that, Eddy, is that although a metal tower can distort the pattern, it won't neccessarily convert a large portion of TX power into heat, whereas anything that is a lossy condu

I noticed no one has mentioned Carl's (K9LA) March/April 2006 NCJ article on the effect of forest on low band operation. I got ahold of the two technical papers he references by Tamir which are the b

But, Carl, there may be other variables changing in the system, for example, the amount of moisture in the ground. So it's not a controlled experiment. Bob VE3OSZ Every autumn (when the fluid is leav

In general, without knowing any details, it could simply be an indication of insufficient radials with a large seasonal change in ground moisture. If however during the dry season there is no change

Ah, assuming you mean zero centigrade, and therefore the transition from wet soil to frozen soil... Frozen soil can be quite different at RF than wet soil. I have some startling stories from Minnesot

It's that time of year when trees and temps become Topband topic. Propagation must be poor. Until the supporting tree blew down, my Inv-L for 160 required shortening of the L in the Fall when the sup
