Default The earth

In the statement about AM Broadcasters you state about the ideal ground
system & describe about the Radials but then ask why, That goes to show you
don't know anything about Antennas, Transmitters. Feedlines, Matching,
Efficiency, If you read farther you would have possibly learned something
but you don't want to learn just bother the group. Nowhere in what you wrote
does it state it is for static or what it is for except if you would read
farther it would have told you...What about a balanced antenna, It has no
earth connection & doesn't need one per your earth definition. If Maxwell
was alive today & had read about all the improvements & discoveries that
have been made & are still being made He would say He was wrong & that the
answer to your question is NO.....I see you have started a new thread called
Electron Gun but keep referring back to this thread for the answer. I'm
very sure you know nothing about a electron gun, or a vacuum tube....To bad
you don't know how to read or study & especially learn about anything...

But you wrote that your radio have the earth/chassis.

The point that you are missing is that the earth connection has
NOTHING
to do with transmitting or receiving a signal. If is merely there for
safety in the event of a lightening strike or build up or static.

So the radio have the earth/chassis.

Ian's equipment will work no differently is the earth connection is
disconnected. Marconi was WRONG!!!!

And what about your equipment?
Is the earth connection disconnected?

I have no earth connection, so it cannot be connected or disconnected.


Why than: "The ideal ground system forAM broadcasters comprises at least
120 buried copper or phosphor bronze radial wires at least one-quarter
wavelength long and a ground-screen in the immediate vicinity of the
tower. All the ground system components are bonded together, usually by
welding, brazing or using coin silversolder to help reduce corrosion".

Tell them that they are WRONG.
