Folks, I have a 60' tall top loaded vertical for 160M and would like to know how best to feed it to use it on 80M as well. On 80M there will be some pretty high voltages at the feedpoint. Other than

Hi, Bob End feeding that 160m 1/4 wave as an 80m 1/2 wave should work great! For several years I ran a vertical 40m 1/2 wave that I fed at the bottom through a 1/4 wave of 450 ohm ladder line. Perfec

Yes, but radials DO help -- a bit. See the ON4UN book. Modeling shows that adding a lot of half-wave radials under a half wave antenna increases signal strength by 0.5 - 1.5 dB at low angles, roughly

Well, sometimes, life is the art of the possible. At the time I was living in q small duplex on a corner lot and running a bunch of on-ground radials wasn't an option. Still I was working YBs and DUs

Good point, Tom I guess I assumed that Bob had verified the 80m resonance. Charlie, K4OTV What is the top loading? Because something resonates on 160 m with something on the top doesn't mean it will

What is the top loading? Because something resonates on 160 m with something on the top doesn't mean it will act like a half wave on 80. At my QTH (YMMV): My 90 foot vertical with four 30 foot top l
