[HCARC] Vertical Antenna Data

[W4wj at aol.com]

Gary...
 
In the ON4UN Low-Band Dxing Book, available from the ARRL,  there is a very 
complete
chapter on Vertical Arrays.  Good reading, with examples  of different 
types of antennas in this
category.

Gary,

I've been able to get antenna data on AM broadcast  stations from the FCC 
web site.  The last time I visited, it was  http://www.fcc.gov and once I got 
there i went to the "audio Division" and  there was a place for AM query.  
The site did provide antenna patterns  for the AM stations and provided data 
on the feed scheme used to generate  those patterns.

One place I've found info on VLF through MF ground  systems is "Antenna 
Engineering Handbook" edited by Jasik, Henry, 1961.   Chapter 19 shows a couple 
of the VLF ground systems including an AF VLF  antenna at Marion, Mass 
built by RCA Communications.  Chapter 20 has a  typical ground system for a two 
element directional antenna.  

The  FCC site is easy to find, the old Jasik book is a challenge.  I'm sure 
 there are  others.
