Hello,

Some people ask for the radials. Is "lambda/4 radials" the right term? I
don't know but I hope it.

It is a normal radial with a length of a quarter wave length. The full
wave length is lambda (a Greek letter).

I.e.: 20 meter band -> 14.000 kHz
                    -> wave length = lambda = 21.43 meters
                    -> lambda/4 = 5.36 meters

The original radials are all 3 meters.
