Got a lot of mail about this, teaching me to shut up because I don't have much free time.
Look folks, as you all know, just about everything with antennas works in some fashion and there's a sliding scale. It's not all black and white. With elevated radials, it isn't as if putting radials at 20 feet up for a 160 m. vertical monopole or 30 feet or anything below 50 feet like 49, will turn them off and make them entirely non-functional. But gradually, as they are placed ever closer to earth, their function as a _counterpoise_ is lessened, and they become more of a _ground system_. You can certainly place them at say, 20 feet high, however, I'd employ more than three or four at that height. 73 Rob K5UJ _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
