[Elecraft] K3 & S9 43' Vertical

[Phil & Debbie Salas]

"If you CAN'T do radials right, DON'T do grounded verticals.  As simple as
that."

I disagree.  Licensed in 1964 at 15, I operated with a 4BTV through high school and college with just a ground rod.  I didn't know any better, but had lots of fun - even with a Knightkit T60 transmitter.  Was it efficient?  Nope.  But I sure enjoyed the hobby during that time.  Of course, I later learned that I could have had even MORE fun if I'd had radials.
