Hard-Core-DX.com: phased BoG experiment in Masset.

phased BoG experiment in Masset.

Monday, January 07 2019


Bill, my phased array was similarly about 1.3 to 1, but more like about 5'
apart. Results were occasionally very interesting, but in the end, I
didn't use it very much (too much happening during TP openings). One down
side was that the shorter BoG was not amplified compared to the longer one,
so I sensed this made a big difference in decreasing the efficacy. Perhaps
I'm wrong on that. I also don't necessarily have much to the rear of the
NW BoG once daylight breaks to my east. I suspect, perhaps that a phased N
Beverage might be more interesting, especially if it can help with splatter
from the rear! 73, Walt
