Hi Rick,
One more comment. I believe AM broadcast stations try to avoid phase
cancellation between skywave and ground wave, and therefore they try and
avoid antennas that have a high angle lobe. I'm pretty sure that's why
the AM broadcast stations that tried such things as a 5/8 wave length
radiator determined that this caused phase cancellation problems between
I think you have just made my argument for me. NVIS antennas don't
work for BCB stations. What is different about ham stations such
that NVIS should work on 160 meters?
