Hello Brian, thanks for the description of your antenna system. all constructed in 2.5mm aluminium wire. I think you wrote a little note on alumium wire. Alumium can be a valid alternative for copper
Hi Rik, I have been following the folklore around antennas since I joined the reflector and have many printed out and and in a folder. I am currently trying to make sense of my own situation. My ante
Hi John, I believe that the 'basic rule' with an elevated loading coil is that the current remains constant from the bottom end (feeding point) up to the coil and will drop linear from the coil towar
<< If a sufficiently large L is raised to the top of the vertical to self resonate a practical top load, this behaves as an infinite load. Think about a series tuned circuit, at just below resonance
Mike, I am happy to clarify various points: Can you explain this concept, please. It is foreign to me. It could be a term from MF broadcast antenna practice, and it means adding together all the seri
From G3XDV I contend that, although I may have my theory incorrect, using elevated inductance can be worthwhile (even with the increased resistive losses caused by the total inductance having to incr
