I installed a Titanex V160HD along with its own matching unit V160A. I'm puzzled about what is going on with the radial system I'm testing: 1.. 60 different length radials centered on antenna base. T

Enzo, I have a similar situation with a BC station on 1620 about 2km away. I use the MFJ-731 SWR Analyzer Filter to help me find the resonance of the vertical to a first degree. Then I use my rig and

Hi everybody, Radials that are elevated or insulated need to be resonant... The elevated radials are resonant, actually I put them up to discover why the grounded system didn't work. The grounded one

Enzo, etc., I agree with Don, K5AQ. The MFJ 259B is can be overloaded by nearby AM broadcast stations. My suggestion is to try the measurements at night when the station is off the air. Otherwise get

Topband: buried radial problems.I'd like to thanks everybody for any suggestion. This evening I'll try to tune the antenna after 11:00 PM when the BC will be switched off. Happy holidays. 73s de Enzo

Hi everybody! I've been worked out the problem! Last night I went out after the BC was turned off. I disconnected the two elevated radials, then I joint the two buried system... It was -6&deg;C but I

Probably because resistance to ground of such a limited ground system is fairly high, which adds to the low radiation resistance of your antenna to get you closer to 50 ohms. In other words, you may

In general, you want the radiation resistance to be large compared to the other two (or the other two to be small in comparison to the radiation resistance). With a short antenna, you make the radiat

If you simply model a top loaded ("T" type) vertical on EZNEC, you can see that if you get enough top loading wire in the air, you can get the drive impedance up about as high as you want. This has

Enzo: Someone has already said, but it does bear repeating: when using elevated radials, they have to be part of the resonant system, and you will need radials cut for 160, 80, 40 or some system to b

Hi Bob, Actually I put up the two elevated just for testing and to discover why the first system didn't work, they were only for 160m (abt. 40m lenght each) but mounted at 2.5m from the soil, too clo
