RE: [HCDX] Vertical antennas

["Patrick Buckingham" <pb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ive had a 35 foot vertical with 3 radials for bands 19 thru 60 meters
for a while now and it performs quite well. As with all my different
antennas certain signals sound clearer on it. Im moving in 3 weeks to a
new home we bought with a lot more space and I will hang a vertical
there also.

Subject: [HCDX] Vertical antennas


Has anyone experimented with verticals for receiving? I have built a 40
foot vertical in the backyard with a series of Ground rods for a Ground
Plane. It is a very quiet antenna I find with somewhat of a lobe to the
North. The vertical is a wire up a spruce tree and a 15 foot pole at the
top. Any thoughts on what I could build for a loading coil?  How about a
series of verticals for phasing? I wonder how this would compare with
other antennas?
