Everyone,
Happy New Year 2019 to everyone.
Unfortunately I do not have space for a 4 square so I am thinking about
upgrading my 2 elem vertical to a 3 elem triangular array, as described by
ON4UN on page 11-44 , chapter 4.6. Triangular Arrays
I see WX0B sells this box but I was looking for someo
Apologies to all for delay in response.
Losses related to ground and close dielectric materials remain the
single monster gorilla in the room for improving TX performance of
vertical antennas.
Setting aside content on k2av.com relating to the FCP, the other
issues in that web page’s "Loss List" s
Guy,
I need some more db's on Tx. For Rx I hear much better than heard into
EU from Seattle area. It's a hard path and easy to believe EU QRN/QRM is
the main culprit. Your "loss list" is a great list, but I am thinking
about a different potential problem with my T with eight 125' long
eleva
On FT-8 (1840) there has been some amazing propagation with several ZS
stations worked one hour before sunset and JA's worked 45 minutes after
local sunrise. Working JA's by calling " CQ JA KV4FZ FK77" and listening
on 1908 for them requires that the rig control WSJT-X V2.0 has the rig
control set

Your fundamental problem is a lack of understanding of how a monopole
works, specifically a base fed vertical with a ground system. Anyone
