Hi Grahan .mmmmm 10 feet?? that could reduce your effective height to 10feet makingi it 6dB (maybe not quite that bad) worse than the 40 foot pole on its own. The only plus point would be if that "ra
Hi Graham its not exactlyaerial weather here either The problem with unconventional "shapes" is you will have to just try 'em out. I have always concentrated on reducing ground loss as the most effec
oK Alan This would be the lay-out, the lower run would be about 10 ft up from the raised radial , which may increase the ae amps in the vertical section ? when you say , reduce the affective height ,
R Alan, Down to one of Mr Hobson's fine designs here , the under slung wire , would be the simplest to arrange , say it ran 10 ft above a 90 ft elevated ground radial , now would that xtra C , increa
Hi Graham, without measuring it I would not be sure. It is no good trying to simulate this because these factors are not included in the models. I think putting wies under one another is like folding
Hi Graham it basically doesnt matter too much The thing is to get as much wire as high as possible. Yes fold it back, meander it....spacings less than about 2 feet dont add much over a single wire. D
The folded back , open Box , is the most simple to try , the radial , is 90 feet long and 6 ft off the ground , earthed at the common point in the shed , open at the far end , so in terms of capacity
Ok wrong interpretation in the last email. The folded back section would seem to be a "spoiler" to me. It would seem to me to be better to slope it away out of the plane of the top-wire and radial (o
R Alan. Horizontal spread ......missing at the moment ... will have another look out side , when the rain stops , horizontal open box may be possible ..just Tnx -G.. From: [email protected] A
