Hi Joe the sloping top would reduce thr Rrad a little so <1ohm ....crank the Variac back upagain :-)) -- Original Message -- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, J
Hello Joe, I just simulated the antenna with MMANA-GAL and it resulted in Z = 1.57-j185.5 Ohm. So the antenna C would be about 1.8 nF. However a 50 uH loading coil point to 2.2 nF antenna capacitance
Hi Alan and Rik, Thanks for the comments. I was hoping to take advantage of the 'footprint' effect by the longer top loading, but it seems this may be pulling down Rrad. Perhaps some pruning may be i
