Hi

I am buiding a 160 meter vertical.  For the radials, I have some surplus 
wire and was wondering which would be better - fewer radials measured at 1/4 
wavelengths or a larger number of radials  that are shorter than a 1/4 
wavelength - example - four 126+ foot radials vs five 100 foot radials or 
double the radials but in the longer or shorter fashion.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.
