This is a concept paper, not a constuction article. There are too many variables to propose a one size fits all design. However, this paper should give you the basic idea how to do it

The goal of detuning is not to avoid resonance, but rather to minimize re-radiation and/or current in the interfering structure.

The **136kHz Vertical Antenna** at G3YMC employs a Butternut HF2V structure, standing 10m tall. It integrates a 6.5mH loading coil to achieve resonance, with a matching transformer for impedance adjustment. The antenna's configuration includes top loading via a 12m horizontal wire, enhancing capacitive impedance. Initial measurements indicated a high impedance of around 300 ohms, necessitating a transformer for a 50-ohm match. Despite challenges with ground losses, the vertical antenna has shown improved performance in specific directions, filling nulls present in the previous loop antenna setup. The tuning remains broad, with variations due to environmental factors affecting the matching. Ongoing adjustments and comparisons with the loop antenna will continue to refine its effectiveness.

22 Different Wire Antennas for the 160 Meter Band, Random Length Radiator Wire, delta loop, loop antennas, off-centered antennas, sloper, dipoles, Z antenna, Zepp and Clothesline Antennas

The NB6Zep Antenna, an electrically shortened 80-meter end-fed wire, addresses space constraints for low-band operation by integrating two loading coils into a 37-foot wire. This design, modeled with _EZNEC_, explores configurations like the quarter-wave sloper and inverted-L, with the latter providing a more vertical radiation pattern and practical backyard deployment. The resource details specific coil construction, recommending 21 uH coils made from _BW coil stock #3026_ or similar, and outlines wire segment lengths for optimal tuning. Performance analysis indicates a radiating efficiency of approximately 27% with good ground conductivity, resulting in a signal typically 3-4 dB down compared to a full-size quarter-wave vertical. The antenna exhibits a narrow bandwidth, around 50 kHz, due to its high Q, necessitating a tuner for broader band operation. Feedpoint impedance is low, with ground resistance playing a critical role in achieving a usable SWR. The article emphasizes the importance of an effective ground rod at the feedpoint for proper operation and tuning, suggesting an antenna analyzer for precise adjustments. It confirms the antenna's suitability for DX, citing successful contacts from Oregon to the East Coast and Hawaii on a 160-meter variant, making it a viable option for urban operators seeking low-angle radiation on 80 meters.
