Vertical antenna

M0GVZ said:
That antenna might be a commercial product of the type of antenna W8JI was describing but what W8JI was describing was the generic concept of a 1/4 wave with sloping radials rather than a specific make/model. Sloping radials are mentioned in the ARRL Antenna book in the grounding section.

True and the Star Duster is basically a 1/4 wave radiator with sloping radials. I suspect when W8JI used the term Shooting Star he confused it with the Star Duster.
