The correct procedure is that the faster operator should slow down to
accomodate the slower operator.

Cebik was one of the antenna greats. Co author of the ARRL antenna handbook
for some time. And a lot of his work is preserved with
free access (you need to create a login though) on the cebik.com web site.
If you are serious about antennas, this is a great site.

Brian,
Look higher up in the bands (more true on the higher HF bands) - generally the
speeds are lower there.

Ok.. the window line is run in as straight of a line as I gan manage.. wow what
a bunch
of brush in the back 40! Now for the big question...
Is it better to mount the transformer near the ground stake and take the window
line
to the ground OR
Is it better to leave the windowline
hi reflectees !
I guess i was not specific enough. I was stating that my 2 el broadside
array`s signal with 1/2 spacing must have lower angle of radiation than
my 3 el 1/4 wave spacing in line array. The farther the shot, the more
signal i get and produce with the 2el versus the 3 el in-line
Again. i am not talking forward gain at any angle of radiation, i am
talking gain at a specific angle.
Wolf, the launch angle field strength immediately above the horizon is going
to be determined primarily by the near and medium-distance ground
conductivity. Notwithstanding gain, nulls, etc
Thanks to everyone for all the helpful information. i was certain that it
could be done, and I thank you all for the detailed information.
The 80m verticals are already there, I am using the two verticals
independently, so all I need to do is buy a roll of coax, make the delay
line, and
That would be a function of a number of things unrelated to array
topology. It could reflect difference in electrical tower height or how
the array is phased. A properly designed vertical array will always have
maximum vertical angle gain near zero degrees elevation. Theoretically
the maximum
IMHO word of caution:
LB Cebik was a great modeler, has done lot of work modeling various antennas,
configurations etc but have not built most of his models in real life with real
wires and tubing.
Granted, modeling programs are getting better and better, are a great tool
especially for

Contesters want to work everyone. No sane contester is going to ask why
anyone enters. Get in there and enjoy yourself! If it takes a few tries
to copy a call because they're speedy, that's OK.
Another thing contesters want is new contesters. Myself I try to
remember to slow down the
