VE1ZZ >He is wrong! >Theory and experiment confirrm that 1W ERP is 1W ERP >irrespective of the sise /height of the ant. (or anything else for that >matter). There is a difference. The big antenna lauches the signal where it is meant to go whereas the small antenna just heats up the ground beneath it. A small antenna on LF is just a leaky dummy load. So you are saying that 1W erp from a dummy load radiates just as efficiently as 1W from a 200 ft vertical for instance. Dont forget to position your dummy load in a vertical plane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >Merry Xmas to all. Laurie. > > >
