But what did you mean by "proper pattern"?
I should have said, the best pattern that adjusting the Inductive loads
will provide.
Yes, I understand the pattern changes with frequency. What I want to do
is inductively load the antenna,
so it will have the same pattern as if we increased the length.
Say I have a BOG with a length that is ideal to give me the best RDF
number available at say 1.8Mhz.
Now, I move down to 1MHz, and I inductively load it, can I get that
same RDF number?
ie. can I reduce the VF to make it act like the correct length?
What are the caveats?
Thanks, Mikek
