The Texas Bugcatcher and capacity hats
In article ,
Sal salmonella@food poisoning.org wrote: "gareth" wrote in message ... In another post, those of us from THIS side of the pond were shown the Texas Bugcatcher antenna (easily googled), and its extensive website. And my question is this, why is it called a capacity hat, because calculation of the capacity between the hat and the ground will only give, at a guess, a miniscule fraction of a puff. Others have provided essential theory. In practice: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KFI See paragraph entitled "Third Tower" and read second sentence. Another interesting "in practice" writeup can be found in the first 50 pages of Ed Laport's excellent "Radio Antenna Engineering", where he discusses the use of top-loading of low-frequency broadcast antennas. http://snulbug.mtview.ca.us/books/Ra...naEngineering/ |
