Really? Even a vertical dipole?

Every vertical "needs" the ground for its efficient performance especially at the low angles. Vertical dipoles and their elevated cousins are still "looking" out at the ground, farther waway and with a bit less of participation. Wanna see dramatic display of salt water "ground" performance/contribution? Take your any verticaly polarized antenna and compare its performace between ground ground and salt water ground. You would see somewhere between 10 - 15 dB difference. Yuri |
