Is there any theoretical or, more importantly, practical difference in
the performance of a vertical antenna using "skinny" buried radials.
If I planned to use ten radials of #16 bare copper and then decided to go
with 4/0 bare copper instead of the #16, was the money difference well
spent?
Ignoring the chemical/mechanical survivability of the heavier wire would
the RF care?
