This is the first time I've done this. If the need arises again,
I'll
have to download and try EZNEC, I guess.
Meanwhile, I am concerned about the efficiency of our ARES
Command
Center HF antenna system.
Could someone please advise me what feedpoint SWRs would be seen
on a
wire antenna, 15 feet above a flat metal roofed building, (it a
NVIS antenna), and resonant at 6.2 MHz.
It is operated at 3.98 MHZ, 5.4 MHz, and 7.2 MHz
The 100 watt radio has one of those built in tuners that can only
handle 3:1 SWR. I suspect we are terribly inefficient.
Jerry, are you saying that your model suggests the Z~=72+j0 at
resonance, and the half wave dipole is ~0.1m above a perfectly
conducting plane. It doesn't seem right.
That should read "0.1 wl above..."
