Are there any online sources that show vertical whip antenna

angles vs. antenna length (as a function of wavelength)?

Hi Dave,

Go to:
http://www.eznec.com/
and research to your heart's content with the simple designs (or make
your own).

Done and done... nice program! I'm hoping I entered the correct values
for everything. Do the patterns listed below look correct? I assumed
things like wire diameter (I used 2mm) didn't affect the output
significantly... although I did notice some things like the number of
segments did affect the output if I decreased them (I used 10 for these
cases).

(filename = length in wavelengths):

Do those look correct?

Thanks in advance!
