You, however, are too much of an ignorant, ineducable, babbling idiot to be able to understand it. To be precise, only end fed monopoles need a counterpoise. The counterpoise can consist of either radials, a large conductive area fabricated for the purpose, or the Earth itself IF the surface conductivity is high enough. The words "ground", "radial", and "counterpoise" in relation to antennas are three diffent things with three different meanings but you are too much of an ignorant, ineducable, babbling idiot to be to understand that. A quarter wave, end fed vertical monopole with a set of radials does NOT need a connection to ground. The radials serve as the counterpoise. As you are an ignorant, ineducable, babbling idiot you will not understand any of this and will reply with babbling nonsense. |

somebody wrote in message ... snip We (the group excluding Szczepan) have some good discussions. Szczepan can be amusing in the views he puts forward. I can't work out whether he is trying to tease us or really is confused. Which is why I made my reference to Allen Funt of "Candid Camera." Funt created preposterous situations and yet people tried their darndest to make something real out of it. I recall a car with no engine whose driver rolled it downhill into a service station. The driver, Funt's attractive co-host, insisted that she had driven around town all day and wanted the mechanic to check the car because it didn't seem to have much power. In a perfect world, when the mechanic popped the hood, he would have laughed and the "bit" would be spoiled. But no! He tried eight ways to explain to her that she COULDN'T have been driving around town. She just sweetly continued the hoax as several other mechanics came over to check out the action. Classic! Szczepan is that car with no engine and we are those mechanics. :-) 73, "Sal" |

Everything build-able is directional, to a greater or lesser degree, when the pattern is viewed in 3 dimensions. tom K0TAR You want this moron to think in three dimensions when he can't tell the difference between 1 and 2 (monopole/dipole)? |
Dipole-2 different wire sizes?

Suppose that electric charge flows periodically back and forth between the spheres." In " NASA" antennas (eg. phase radars) the each "sphere" is fed from special feeder. Phased radars don't use spheres for antennas. Hertz was using the spheres or plates. They both were the ends of the open circuit. The end can be without any "hat". If are the two sphere we have a dipole (Hertzian dipole). In Marconi antenna is only one "sphere". It is the monopole. Do you have exactly the same voltages in the both ends of your "dipole"? S* |

Have you the same voltages on the braid and on the coax "live" wire? Not without a ballancing device of some sort. Are the same voltages on the counterpoise and on the arm? If not, than you heve the monopole. What an utter idiot; a monopole has one physical element while a dipole has two physical elements. Monopole have always the two elements: the antenna and the counterpoise. That is the meaning of the prefixes "mono", which means one, and "di", which means two. So monopole has the one pole. The end of the counterpoise is not the pole. In your "dipole" the counterpoise is in the form of one elevated radial. S* |

It is your misunderstanding that: 1. amateurs always connect coax directly to a dipole. they don't. those that are in the know will use a balun. 2. the braid of the coax is "ground". this is not true. there will be voltage at the braid of the coax at the antenna end when a balun is not used. |

It is your misunderstanding that: 1. amateurs always connect coax directly to a dipole. they don't. those that are in the know will use a balun. In the past, many amateurs did connect coax directly to a dipole. The reason is that - on most occasions - it worked perfectly well, and they 'got away with it'. It was only when problems occurred (interference to TV, radio, Hi-Fi etc) that much thought was given to the need for a balun. In modern times, there is a lot more opportunity for amateurs to interfere with - and suffer interference from - all kinds of domestic equipment, and the use of a balun (or twin feeder) has more-or-less become an absolute necessity. 2. the braid of the coax is "ground". this is not true. there will be voltage at the braid of the coax at the antenna end when a balun is not used. Szczepan is obviously making the fundamental mistake of thinking that, because the coax screen is grounded at the transmitter end (or at least connected to the chassis of the transmitter), it is therefore at zero RF potential - and that it is still at RF potential at the far (antenna) end, where it is connected directly to the 'other' leg of the dipole. This is wrong. He is then assuming that if the coax screen is at zero RF potential where it is connected to the other leg of the dipole, then the other leg of the dipole is also at zero RF potential (and doesn't radiate). This is wrong. He is therefore concluding that as both the coax screen and the other leg of the dipole are at zero RF potential, the only part of the antenna system that is 'RF live' is the leg of the dipole which is connected to the inner conductor of the coax - which is what happens with a monopole. As a result, he is then claiming that a dipole is really only a monopole. This is wrong. However, I'm still convinced that Szczepan knows far more about radio than he appears to, and is cunningly trying to get us to explain phenomena which maybe we really don't know as much about as we like to think we do! -- Ian |

The transmission line used to connect to the antenna has absolutely nothing to do with what kind of antenna a particular antenna is. Transmission lines and antennas are two separate things. You are a babbling, ineducable idiot. Yours "dipoles" are not symmetrical (electrically0. They are symmetrical mechanically. ALL of my dipoles ARE electrically symmetrical as they are fed either with balanced transmission line or there is a balancing device between the transmission line and the antenna. How many antennas have you built in your lifetime? |
