Subject: C4C 40 Meter Dipole
Author: hafner jack <hafner_ko6ic@yahoo.com>
Date: 05-Oct-2002 11:54:28
I am planning to install a C4C 40-meter dipole on my
C3S that will be located at about 30-35 feet above the
ground. My ham friends who work 40 meter DX tell me
that a dipole located less than a half-wavelength
above the ground will have no direction capability and
because of its high angle of radiation, I am told that
this dipole may only be a local antenna.

Others who have used a 40-meter dipole tell me that it
is quieter and has ground reflection gain not seen by
a vertical.

I would appreciate any input that regarding the use of
the C4C or a similar rotatable dipole.

Thank you,
Jack Hafner, KO6IC
