You must know something about LF/MF antennas that the broadcast engineers do not know. Why do they always go for masts 200 ft - 100ft high. It would be much easier to generate more RF from the tx and use 10 ft masts to achieve the same erp out Why are some 73/136 operators using 40 - 60 ft masts when they could use a vertical a few feet high and according to you get the same results.
