If by increasing the number of radials from 10 to 20 the improvement in
signal strength is only 1/10th of an S-unit then it is a waste of time and
copper in doing so.

Thanks for your replies that confirm what I stated in my page
http://www.astrosurf.com/lombry/qsl-radials.htm
So can we conclude that the assertion stated in the Antenna Book about the
Ground screen is false or at least subject to more comments ?
I have sent the question to "QST's doctor is in ? column". I hope that they
will answer dirtectly to me or via the magazine a next month.
