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??

How about a J-Pole? Low angle radiation. The bottom end can be connected to
earth ground. In fact, I constructed one using a mast with the 1/4 wave
parallel section added 1/2 wave below the top. Real easy. No radials.

Just a thot.
