He may have used a pseudonym. He did prefer to write for CQ, they paid
a little bit where QST did (does?) not. I have been out of touch with
Bill since leaving the Central Ohio area.

As I recall, after he had one such artical published he received quite
a few letters from people who took it seriously.

My guess as to the date could easily be that far off. But if your friend
wrote it for QST or HR, he used a pseudonym -- I don't see his call or
name in the inclusive indexes of either magazine.

It must have been in CQ or 73. I can still recall the diagram, showing
the buried antenna and the dotted "image" above ground.
