I'm trying to figure out how well my radial system is performing with test
down at antenna feed point:
Radials detached:
Resonant point w/ 1.6 SWR, 80 ohms impedance, 40Khz bandwidth at 2:1 SWR
bell curve
With Radials attached:
85Khz drop in resonant point now with 1.4 SWR, 42 ohm impedance, 56 Khz
bandwidth at 2:1 SWR bell curve.
With radials, big drop in resonant point, impedance drops at antenna, and
slightly wider bandwidth at 2:1 SWR bell curve. So how is my radial system
doing?
