Many thanks for the useful advice and information.
I have printed off all comments and will have a serious re-think
about my loading coil design.
The wooden dowels I used were 3/8 th inch softwood and the whole
frame was varnished several times.
I think, from what's been said that the Q factor I am getting on
both my coils is rather low being in the order of 70 - 85 !!
When suspended under the vertical down lead the loading coil is
necessarily close to my wooden fence - probably only 18 inches away.
It sounds as though this is not ideal !
I run an output power of about 90 watts with a measured aerial
current of 1.2 A on a good (dry) day.
Am I correct in assuming that I can't attach .bmp photos to the
group E-mails ?
