Nothing heard this morning in NH at 1530Z. Am in a condo environment where invisibility is a factor. Antenna is an Inverted L fed through a series capacitor with two #22 ga. raised radials 136' long ~ 10 feet high running through the woods which have stayed up 2 days so far.
One question : Do you think that thin radials could cause an increase in receiver noise ? Another question : The 50 ohm feedline line is 25' long connected directly to the rig. Is isolation needed to preserve the effectiveness of raised radials ? If so, what would the isolation consist of ? 73 Jim / W1FMR / QRP _________________ Topband Reflector
