Hi Rik,

Yes I am using a 3 parallel wire top loaded ant. T config. The ant is 30m long and 13.5 m high.Loading coil 3mh,hence capacity to resonate 460pf approx.Allowing 100pf for vert sect.(your formula 13/12/99) this gives 360pf for 30m ie 12pf per metre. I hope this info is of some intrest to you,and others possibly.73s Laurie.
