Hello friends,I am experimenting with an inverted L for 160. the antenna is about 132 ft long with about 45 to 50 ft vertical and the rest horizontal.i have about 4 radials connected direct to the an

The radiation resistance of your antenna is 12 ohms. The 1.5:1 VSWR tells us the base resistance is either 33 or 75 ohms. The ground loss resistance is either 21 or 63 ohms. The radiation efficiency

If there's no change in VSWR when disconnecting the ground system, that would make me terribly suspicious of the feedline if Eu was my unobtained goal after some time on Topband. 73, - Josh / KF4YLM

Jimmy, Think of it this way...if the feed point resistance of your antenna is 12ohms, "a low VSWR across the band", and fed with a 50 ohm transmission line, you have the equivalent of putting a 40 oh

Carrying this line of thought to the business end of things, 12 ohms / 75 ohms = 16% of the voltage from your transmitted signal will be across the antenna and 84% of the voltage being dissipated in

It most likely also means whatever Jimmy is connecting the radials to is probably not the actual antenna. This result just cannot be, if the radial system were connected to the radiating element. 73
