[Elecraft] Inverted-L (was OT: Vertical antenna)

[David Gilbert]

I suspect that Don was referring to the fact that poor ground 
conductivity affected his low angle performance, and that is absolutely 
true.  There isn't a thing he or anyone else can do to change the far 
field effects of poor ground.  He can add lots of radials, buried or 
otherwise, to improve feedpoint losses, but none of that has any effect 
whatsoever on the far field pattern.
