I built the models in 4NEC2 and EZNEC, both using the MININEC ground
feature. My guess is that the radials are far enough clear of the ground that NEC- 2 should be adequate for modelling, but it would be interested to see what results you get from NEC-4. Re extending wire 10, don't forget it is loaded, so you need to deal with that. Owen Owen, GNEC reports the following. Note I have taken the ratio of the current magnitudes without regard to the phase relationship. I can send you a zipped copy of the NEC output file if you are interested. Freq TAG 10 TAG 1 Ratio ABS SEG 169 SEG 1 (MHz) (mA) (mA) (dB) 3.8 1.43 6.5 13 7.1 0.59 5.4 19.2 10.1 0.25 1.0 12 14.1 0.036 3.4 39.5 Large currents in the 3.8 MHz radials are evident on 30 m. I have removed the loading from TAG 10, and EK is not required in NEC 4. Also I show TAG 10 at extending 3 m below ground. Probably not realistic, but I am always confusing meters with feet! Frank |
