I fully concur, assuming it is a quarter wave, vertically fed, with as much vertical as possible, and with a good array of radials (ideally quarter wave), the current will predominantly be in the vertical. Hopefully the vertical is 60ft Plus, by the way . I have used loading coils in the past, if you can't get a full quarter wave out; I would put it at the top of the vertical ideally, not at the base A T arrangement does indeed cancel out any horizontal radiation, it depends on what space your friend in Laos has We've used L and T at MD4K, lastly with a 26m Spider pole, but this is FD style for us in a large field, so not done for a while now 73 Dave, G3NKC

Properly implemented, it is closer to a full vertical. 73, Drew K3PA _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
