Subject: ungrounded Yagi elements
Author: Dave D'Epagnier <DAVED@ctilidar.com>
Date: 29-Dec-2000 15:01:05
Can anyone tell me what the pros and cons of grounding or floating antenna
elements are? My C3-S has all elements floating. Are Yagis and quieter if
the elements are grounded at the boom? Is there any lightning protection
advantage in grounding the elements? Why does Force 12 float the elements?

thanks,
Dave
