antenna

[William Ward]

An inverted L could be a good compromise, privide you have a good ground as close to the feed point as possible.  Otherwise, use a counterpoise.  A good discussion of the antenna using a counterpoisee can be found at:  http://www.g3ycc.karoo.net/invv.htm

Otherwise, check out these sites for additional discussion of the antenna
