Evening all, just to add my two penneth (2 cents) the whole discussion about a 1/4 wl antenna having 35 ohm impedance came about asa result of one respondent suggesting it was 70 ohm, so I chirped in with the 35 ohm response, little did I realise what would follow, however I'm currently overseers in Turkey and only using my phone to access the Web, I'll take my time to read the replies when I get home, but it looks like a consensus has been reached re ground mounting the antenna, something that many amateurs do, but as Marconi suggested, not many mud ducks
