Have built several of these -- works great -- just run the coax at 90
degrees as far as you can from the center feed point OR consider using a
coax choke or balun.

Hey kids..I know gap kind of does this..but anyone think a verticle dipole
would work...basically a vertical fed in the center...Im wanting a good 10
meter antenna for local stuff and was thinking about a conventional
vertical..than I thought maybe I could do without the radial system and
ground
loss issue but just putting up a vertical dipole for 10...any thoughts??
