What is the polarization of Inverted V ANTENNA
 

ANYONE KNOW THE POLARIZATION OF THE

INVERTED " V " ANTENNA \FOR 11 METERS

Hello Marty:

Vertical, I used one and it did real well.

Jay in the Great Movie Desert, ....just down the raod ah ways from the
fillin station.

How high above the ground, both feedpoint and ends?
What angle between the legs?

Change the height, or the angle, or both, and the polarization will
change, as will the radiation pattern.

Assuming a 45 degree angle from the vertical for both legs, and the
ends around 16 feet off the ground, you should get both horizontal and
vertical radiation, with a decent SWR at the resonant frequency.

It'll be good for both local and dx.
