I used a very long radial (300m) in a field outside my home, but it had little effect and did not improve on my few earth stakes. On portable expeditions to GW, I have used radial wires with some suc
Dick, if it is meant for the LX-expedition: I found out that, probably due to the many trees near the antenna, the loss resistance did not improve when increasing the number of radials beyond the ini
Hi Dick, I experimented with "long" (well, in terms of wavelength still very short) radials at the club station, to increase the antenna current while keeping the transmitter power constant. Result:
Anyone knows if it makes sence to use some long radials 100-300m long in combination with a spiral-coil toploaded vertical with 4x20m toploading wires. Or is this just wasting time and wire...... Dic
