Hello Jean-Francois, The 33 foot length is 1/4-wave on 40m. Using 246/3.75 gives about 65.5 feet for a 1/4-wave radial on 80m. But the 1/8-wave radials you have made do provide good performance with a short vertical and certainly make for a nice portable antenna system. 73, Gus Hansen / KB0YH _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
