If I decide to put my screwdriver to use (I no longer mobile) up in the
attic or on the roof, would radials about 8ft. be as good or better than
a capacitave top hat?
Perhaps the large hats like DXEngineering has? That 8ft. comes from the
old timers that say the radials should be as long as the physical
height, I don't know 'nuff antenna math to really figure it out.
