| The amateur tradition is to do the best you can, and try it out on the air to see if it works for you. Many hams have been pleasantly surprised how well an antenna works, even if significant compromises needed to be made. For instance, my top loaded 160M inverted L started out as a hastily installed inverted L hung between two trees--so I could work CY0P before the DX-pedition operators left Sable Island! I then converted it to a T with unequal T wires. Last Sunday I finally got around to balancing the T wires by splicing in more wire. Grounding?--I just ran a wire over to my 80 M vertical which as elevated 55 ft radials. Works surprisingly well--not only did I work CY0P, but I've worked a bunch of Europeans and 39 states in the last two months! Zack W1VT ARRL Senior Lab Engineer |
