Effects of TOA
While operating on 10M I have observed that a halfwave vertical dipole
will communicate to different areas than a 1.25wl vertical monopole an example would be that during a band opening the 1/2 wl antenna may be working predominantly into New York while the 1.25 wl antenna is working best in California or was it vice versa. This has proven useful for me, instead of fighting a pile-up and can just talk somewhere else. The two verticals may soon be replaced with a tri- bander and I was wondering if I could get this same type of effect by tilting the antenna vertically(no change in polarity) with a remote controlled device. I think it would be pretty cool to hear different areas of the country pop in and out as the elevation of the antenna is changed. Jimmie |
