Hi John, This is great! Thank you for taking the time to write this.
Having only experimented with centre fed dipoles as base antennas over the years these end feds open up a whole new set of placement possibilities for me. I have to confess prior to this I thought of (random wire) end feds as non resonant compromise antennas. Yet another shattered paradigm for me. Come spring I will in fact be trying these out in place of my current dipole. I'll source and order the torriod cores now and I will surely keep you posted. Also I think a 160m end fed will be a worthy project this summer. So height above ground of the end feds will have the same effect on take off angle as it does with dipoles? My What3words locator is unclip.weirder.shields if you want to check out my property layout on google earth.
