Vertical on a tower

Reg Edwards wrote:
Height of tower.

Approximately 30 feet.

Length of vertical radiator.

22 feet.

Number and length of radials.

4 x 22 feet.

Any loading coils?

No, an SGC-230 at the base.

Imagine what might happen if the radials were removed.

I imagined that and got very high angle radiation on
some bands. The tower becomes part of the radiator.
