HVNJ, first of all, you need to read my last post more carefully.

secondly, referring to the astroplane patent sheet is only going to get you into more trouble.
remember what a patent sheet is, and why they exist.
right there in the patent sheet, the inventor of the astroplane says that substituting the cap hat for a full sized radiator is more efficient.

the ONLY!!!! reason they used a cap hat on that antenna was to gain an extra 4 feet of height on the mast.
that antenna was invented to abide by the 60 foot max height limit and send the signal out from the highest possible point on the antenna.

dont you think if he thought a loading coil would have had any positive effect, he would have used it?
or do you not think that herbert blease knew what he was talking about?
