Jim,
you are right, too often we mean counterpoise and say ground.
Hopefully Peter can start doing his experiments based on our wisdom and
I'm curios what will work ok for him.

WRONG. An end-fed wire needs a COUNTERPOISE, not a connection to mother
earth. A counterpoise is a low resistance conductor that provides a
return for the current and t
look into for sure!

Hello Peter,
I think it depends on your willingnes to sacrify the shape of your boat.
If you want to get heard anywhere then you either need a long vertical
plus good ground as mentioned already, or a dipole as high above sea
level as possible. The dipole may be sloped but either the feedpoint

I am also very interested in answers to this question, please include me with
suggestions if you email direct outside of the reflector. I have a 15.25 meter
motorboat on salt water )Puget Sound.) Than
Peter,
In general, any vertical works lots better with more radials. As
fresh water is a fairly poor conductor, the more the merrier!
Unfortunately, because most boats are wooden/fiberglass, what you can
add helps. I don't know if they have to be 1/4 wavelength (I've read yes
and some say

Hello fellows;
You are my last hope as I cannot imagine that I am the only one in the world
who wants to try that.
For many months I have been trying in vain to get tips on how to operate a K3
well on a small 13 m

You don't need an "earth," you need a counterpoise.
VE0JS, who has sailed around the world four times on a 37-ft sail boat,
loads the backstay against a sintered bronze plate in the water. I
suggest that
try and AX1 with a tripod mount mounted to the boat and then one or two
radials over the hull and into the water. Another member expressed interest in
operating over salt water when additional ground is much less important.
