loop antennas and noise suppresion

... No, the earth doesn't act as a surface of a capacitor. Capacitors will self-discharge even when they aren't connected to any circuit. My answer was to Sal. He wrote: "(Last year, I used a 20m dipole at 30 feet, operating out of my van. Everything floated above ground without incident and many QSOs.)" The floor of the van is the plate and the surface of the Earth is the second plate. S* Thanks, Szczepan . That made me smile. I'm sure you will find sites on the web that will help you to understand capacitors. Have a nice day. Ian. |
