Jorge,
I have a 160m antenna asymmetrical antenna, fed against ground, that goes
from one corner of my 120 ft by 120 ft lot to the opposite corner. It is
held up by a single pole, about 55 ft tall. The pole is closer to the fed
end. The wire going up to the pole makes about a 65 degree ang

That would be a pretty low dipole on 160M, and verticals tend to be far
more effective on 160M than low dipoles.

Do a sloper (half WL) and feed in the center.

I used to use a similar method on 80 meters.
Why not feed it (them) at the top?

Wished I had some eggnog. May get some. Meant to type impedance ratio.
Thanks for correction !

Have had inquires about self termination of BOG antennas. *It varies with the
type of soil, moisture content, and length of the wire relative to the ground.
Question #1
My BOG is directional, in the direction of the wire without a resistor, then
why bother with one?
Good Question- Un
