Cec, don't you think you should take diameter of radials as well as
their number into account. Also their angle, and the height above
ground, or their distance from the brickwork, roof beams and rafters
when in an attic.


Actually, I was thinking free space when I wrote that. It
was a qualitative answer, Reg, not a quantitative one.

Do you have an equation for Volts = Function( number, frequency,
watts, length, diameter, angle, height, etc ) ?


Only a ballpark figure, Reg, which should be good enough.
Since balanced radials don't radiate (much), it should
be a piece of cake for you to come up with a piece of
software that calculates voltage at the tips Vs number
of radials. Let me know if you need any help. :-)
