I am also installing an Rx antenna. I am no expert for sure but I think the main reason is to stop the TX antenna being resonant and re-radiating noise etc. so the object is so make it non resonant (NOT a 1/4 wave) on your band of choice. I plan to short my inverted-L to the FCP counterpoise, (or other radial), this way it is electrically a 1/2 wave and shouldn't radiate on top band.. 73 Iain G4SGX _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
