Actually you could do a bit of both. With a bit of coil or an L-network at the base, you have some built in adjust-ability. It's a lot easier than taking the antenna up and down, maybe several times. This is what I do here on my 80/160 vertical.

Top load it and forget about a loading coil at the base. 73, Mike www.w0btu.com On Sat, Aug 10, 2013 at 4:38 PM, Chortek, Robert L < [email protected]> wrote: > top loading has less loss than base loading ... > _________________ Topband Reflector _________________ Topband Reflector
