Have a good evening! 73, Charlie,K4OTV From: Paul Staupe [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, January 07, 2014 7:09 PM To: topband; [email protected] Subject: RE: Topband Radial Question Charlie, The article is: "Using elevated radials in conjunction with deteriorated buried-radial ground systems" Christman, A. ; Zeineddin, R.P. ; Radcliff, R. ; Breakall, J.

Some years back some broadcast engineers did a lot of work replacing deteriorated buried radial fields under broadcast towers with elevated resonant radials. They concluded that 4 elevated radials would do the job quite well. Their work was published in some IEEE transactions, and was based on real engineering measurements! Your inverted L with 4 elevated resonant radial should do quite well! 73, Charlie, K4OTV _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
