5/8 Wave J-Pole vs. 1/2 Wave J-Pole EZNEC Shootout
5/8 Wave J-Poles aren’t better than 1/2 Wave J-Poles
5/8 Wave J-Poles aren’t better than 1/2 Wave J-Poles
Another 5/8 J-Pole Design… can it justify the complexity?
Longer is not always better in the world of antennas. Such is the case of the 5/4 wave vertical antenna… a Super J-Pole Wannabe Antenna
