SigAssuming your interested in DX, your “L” with four elevated radials will handily beat an inverted vee the vast majority of the time.

So a major part of an inverted "L" just as in a regular vertical is the ground system. Correct? Now how elevated radials work great in a regular vertical, only need like 4 to equal miles of wire in ground mounted radial field. Will elevated radials work for an inverted "L"? How about few and shorter than full length elevated radials as in a N6BT design?

The few exceptions will probably be near your local SR (and other times) when horizontal polarization can work better. 73. . .
