You can try matching the output impedance by sqeezing the box harder. How many ohms is your hand + arm + torso + legs to ground? For helicals of other dimensions download program HELICAL3 from website below. What do I use for a ground plane? =============================== YOU plus the box constitute the groundplane. Otherwise, for example, with a set of 4 1/4-wave radials you won't be handheld. --- Reg |
