Hi folks:Iam in the process to reinstall an inverted L antenna. Due to the
category 5 hurricane that passthru the island of ST.CROIX usvi i loss 2 towers
and antennas.one of the towers use to support and inverted L antenna for 160
with radials all over the tower. I will reinstall the inverted L on a
different location about 25 or 30 feet away from the original location.my
question is could i use the same radials from the previous location just
running one wire attach to the radial system to the new inverted Lground
section?
ThanksKP2BH/Jimmy

forgive me for saying that to those that replied “it won’t work”. We’re talking
about160 here – so 30’ is what, 0.06 WL’s! I’d do it if that is what you can do
... and add to it in the opposite direction... I doubt seriously thatyou’re
going to see any real disadvantage to doing it in this manner. You’ll have
decreased losses where you have the more denseground field unless you can add
to it going in the direction you’re moving it in which case it won’t really
make that much difference. Gary K9RX
