A 102-inch vertical whip, commonly a CB antenna, forms the core of this low-profile 10-meter antenna design, optimized for the 28 MHz band. The construction details specify three 8-foot radials made from scrap wire, connected to a common point. This simple yet effective setup is designed for ease of construction and deployment, making it accessible for operators with limited space or materials. The design emphasizes using readily available components, including PVC pipe for the mast and a SO-239 connector for the feedline, ensuring a straightforward build process for a resonant quarter-wave vertical. Field results indicate that this antenna provides good performance for local and DX contacts on 10 meters, despite its compact footprint. The author, N8WRL, shares practical insights into its construction and tuning, highlighting its suitability for temporary or permanent installations where a full-sized antenna might be impractical. Comparisons to more complex designs suggest that this low-profile vertical offers a respectable signal-to-noise ratio and effective radiated power for its size, proving that simple designs can yield satisfying on-air results.

K1JJ presents a compilation of insights regarding vertical radial ground systems, specifically applied to 160m vertical arrays. The resource details 19 distinct observations and recommendations, emphasizing that ground radials primarily reduce ground losses rather than influencing pattern formation. It explains that RF current flows inefficiently through average soil, necessitating copper radials to create a low-resistance path back to the antenna base. The content suggests that **50-60 radials** are generally sufficient to achieve optimal efficiency, with diminishing returns beyond that number, and that radials should be laid on the surface for best performance. The discussion also addresses practical aspects such as wire gauge, installation techniques using 'U' shaped staples, and methods for connecting radials in multi-element arrays. It highlights the importance of radial length, stating that 1/4 wave radials are a crucial minimum, and that for 160m, radials should be at least _100 feet_ long. The resource critically examines the efficacy of elevated radials versus ground radials, noting that while a few elevated radials may suffice for VHF, HF applications, particularly on 160m, require extensive ground radial systems to efficiently collect RF currents in the near field. It also touches on the impact of radial systems on parasitic elements and the significance of symmetrical radial patterns for minimizing losses. Further practical advice includes wire type recommendations, proper soldering and weatherproofing techniques for radial connections, and considerations for integrating steel towers into the ground system. The author shares personal experience with installing 60 quarter-wave and half-wave radials under each of three in-line verticals, expressing satisfaction with the results.
