My antenna is a broad-banded, low-Q, folded-fan vertical, low profile at
just 33 ft. tall on a city lot. It covers 160m thru 6m with just a few
components in its "tuner box" at feedpoint on the ground. Of course
everything is directly connected to Mother Earth ground, DC wise and RF
wise, which Hiram Percey referred to as 'plumber's delight.' It has 36
slightly buried radials and 38 ground rods in the back yard. Trees
around here are much taller. Utility grounds are tied in. I sleep fairly
well during storms.
