Hey Tom Which is the better way of feeding the Half Square what is the plus and minus of both? Voltage vs. Current Fed
> > I used a half square on 17 meters in Colorado in 1995 at the bottom of the > sunspot cycle. I voltage fed it with a parallel LC network and one 1/4 wave > radial. The flat top phasing line was only 13 feet off of the ground with > the antenna broadside Europe and the Pacific. The results: 100 countries in > 30 days with 100 watts. A serious DX antenna. > > I also put up a half square on 160 in Colorado, with the same voltage feed. > I linear loaded each 1/4 wave leg into two each 1/8 wave 64 foot sections > and it worked fantastic. I had a big signal with 100 watts. > > 73 & GUD DX, > Thomas F. Giella, NZ4O > Lakeland, FL, USA > n...@... > > > NZ4O Amateur & SWL Autobiography: http://www.nz4o.org >
