Or (3) you could leave the radials as they are and shorten the vertical wire. The physical environment will shift the resonant frequency away from that predicted by EZNEC as modeling is not an exact science. Any of the three choices will work and none of them will result in the exact resonant frequency you desire. In the end, to get the frequency exact, you will be required to "cut and try" in an iterative process that often forces you to add back one inch of the two inches you just removed. :-) -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com I decided to cut radials because it was the easiest job considering that vertical is elevated 9m up the ground. I cut radials to 3.25m and now the SWR is 1.3:1 on 14.020 . I left the vertical to 5.1m . I will test the antenna this days. Thanks for help. Eznec was very helpful also. 73 9A4MN Neno |
