I am quite enjoying this discussion, even though some of it is anecdotal and some is theoretical/mathematical. Are there any readers of this list, who, say, has a home (or did a portable op) whereby

Sorry- 2 obvious typos in my last. ".and K7BV ran JA's on 40m CW until hours after sunset." (SUNRISE is the right word) Added info: Both DXpeditions were mid summer..,near bottom of cycle. Mike, Core

For the verticals I have put up on a temporary basis very close to the water, I am pleased with just two elevated radials. I tried radials on the ground and in the water but as you and others have sa

My experience with two elevated resonant radials near (0.1 to 0.2 wavelengths) the tide line has been very positive during 4 DXpeditions. The coverage is almost 180 degrees in the direction of the sa

Kenny, Its not easy and in fact I havent done it for anything lower than 40m. It would be very interesting to compare something at the waters edge to what I have now. The shoreline runs SW-NE - I thi

Kenny has direct experience with this -- he was part of N6BT's Project Vertical contest expeditions. And you probably know about AA7JV's antennas for his island DXpeditions. He's ALWAYS been easy to

Thanks, Dan! I have absolutely no concern about what I am achieving from about 240 degrees CW to about 25 degrees. I dont think it gets much better for a single element. In terms of wavelength my 160

N6BT has reported that modeling software doesn't get verticals right. He concluded this after using a drone to test antennas in the real world. Modeling software does a great job on horizontal antenn

Yes, but only assuming that the water's edge is a straight line parallel to the Y axis. Here's a comparison of the azimuth patterns at a 10° elevation angle when a) the vertical is right at the water

Well People believe on what they want to believe. The difference from close to the water and far from the water is zero, nada, dont bother. 10 FT , 100 FT and 1000 FT is the same. The difference "in"

I'm not sure if this helps but can you put a smaller vertical near the water's edge and then run a top loading wire angled to the tower top? John KK9A Kenny, It's not easy and in fact I haven't done
