So, is the ground wire just left "floating", JC?No electrical
connection to the antenna itself?
Thanks and 73,

What kind of improvement in performance is observed by providing a better
ground, JC? And, where would a ground wire (counterpoise?) be connected
with the DHDL

Mike and Gang,
It was this project (terminated bowtie) that got me looking into the KD9SV
994 x5 preamp a few months ago (I published some info on this preamp a few
months ago). I think the KD9SV 994 x5 preamp sometimes called the KD9SV
VLN preamp (very low noise preamp) would be perfect for use

I have two flag rx ants and I was looking at the DHDL and DK6ED Double Loop
System V2 and wondering if twisting my Flag rx ants into Bowties would improve
the forward pattern and make them narrower with better front to back.
I would just ""flip"" the termination resistor end to form a loose B
