Ham Radio Outside the Box<p><strong>How Can A Lossy Wire on the Ground Work Better Than A Quarter Wave Vertical Antenna?</strong></p><p>Let’s get real here! If we lay a wire antenna on the ground, surely It can’t radiate more power than that cool-looking, expensive quarter-wave whip you just spent a small fortune to buy? Well, yes it can – but with a few caveats.</p><p>We can use a trick of geometry to support our claim. Our magic wire antenna has a footprint on the ground of only one square foot. The cool, costly ground-mounted whip has a footprint on the ground of only one square inch (ignoring the radial field). Bigger is better yes? Not convinced?</p><p>Okay, let’s unravel the geometric trickery while still maintaining our original claim. You might picture one square foot as a small square with equal sides of one foot. Therein lies the trickery. If we take 144 feet of wire of 1/12 inch diameter and tightly wind it into a square with sides of one foot, we’ll have a footprint on the ground of one square foot. Now let’s unwind that wire and stretch it out in a straight line along the ground. It is now 144ft long and 1/12 inch wide which is still one square foot.</p><p>Enough of the mathemagical sleight of hand; there is a much more convincing way of proving our point. Everybody knows that an antenna wire laid directly on the ground is lossy and, for once, everybody is right. But, only a few of us know how to take advantage of such a wire and make it a very useful antenna. I have personally enjoyed multiple QSOs with wires on the ground – despite the losses. I too was a skeptic until I actually tried it.</p><p>The theory of why it works has been covered in <a href="https://hamradiooutsidethebox.ca/2023/08/04/a-200ft-wire-antenna-up-zero-feet-how-does-it-perform/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">previous posts on this blog</a>. The secret is that the wire has to be at least one wavelength (and preferably multiple wavelengths) long. The radiation pattern is a directional beam with low elevation.</p> <p>As we can see in the far field plots above, EZNEC predicts an elevation angle of 25 degrees and a beamwidth of 54 degrees. However, the antenna has a loss of 3.9dBi. If we allow for the fact that some signal is also radiated outside the main beam, let’s treat that loss as, say, 5dBi.</p><p>Now compare that to our quarter-wave vertical for which we can estimate unity gain with a beamwidth of 360 degrees.</p> <p>Now a clearer picture is beginning to emerge. If we calculate the RF energy within a beamwidth of 54 degrees for both antennas we can see how they compare. Let’s say our transceiver puts out 100 watts (I can hear QRP diehards loading for bear here). The lossy wire on the ground will only radiate 30 watts. The quarter-wave vertical will radiate all 100 watts but spread over 360 degrees. Within the beamwidth of 54 degrees, the vertical will radiate only 15 watts!</p><p>Gadzooks! A reel of wire costs only a few bucks but can radiate twice as much power as a shiny whip costing significantly more? Date check: yes it’s still January, not the first of April. Admittedly, this is a theoretical analysis lacking rigorous procedures for a proper engineering investigation. But, once again, I have personally made QSOs with more than one wire-on-the-ground antenna. Were my signal reports very poor? Absolutely not. This is not a spoof post, trust me.</p><p>There is another advantage of this wire-on-the-ground antenna when compared to a quarter-wave whip. Vertical antennas are generally considered to be susceptible to vertically-polarized noise. A wire on the ground is relatively immune to noise because of its inherent signal loss.</p><p>I don’t recommend selling your shiny, expensive whip and replacing it with some wire strewn across your backyard. However, imagine the possibilities when operating out in the Big Blue Sky Shack. A long wire can be concealed in a ditch, or in tall grass. Store it on a fly-fishing reel, then when you have finished operating simply reel it back in. It is the ultimate stealth antenna which could also be useful in a HOA situation.</p><p><strong>Help support <em>HamRadioOutsidetheBox</em></strong></p><p>No “tip-jar”, “buy me a coffee”, Patreon, or Amazon links here.

Swede’s Photographs<p>Good morning, friends. 🌺🌺🌺</p><p>19 December 2024</p><p>Once upon a time in the olden days I had a portable television that I purchased used because I could not afford a new one. This television had a 14-inch screen and rabbit ears on top of the set. Now I realize that people born in the 21st Century may not know what rabbit ears are, so I will attempt a description: rabbit ears were a sort of indoor antenna made two extendable rods that looked rather like the feelers on an insect - bet that cleared it up. While the TV worked okay it had one minor defect, there was no knob to turn the channel; so, I improvised with pliers. Okay, I should explain what a knob was on a TV, but I'm out of characters.</p><p>"Whatever people thought the first time they held a portable phone the size of a shoe in their hands, it was nothing like where we are now, accustomed to having all knowledge at our fingertips". - Nancy Gibbs</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photographer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographylovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photographylovers</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/morning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>morning</span></a>, <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/friends" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>friends</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/portable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>portable</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/flowers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flowers</span></a></p>
