Why a Ground is so Important for Shortwave Listening
Damned if it ain’t effective. The wire I stripped is a ground wire (telephone pair wire), NOT the antenna.
Yeah it’s a little confusing.. there are TWO wires wrapped around each other (it’s old telephone pair wire), one is the antenna and the OTHER that I stripped and connected to the fence is a very long and unshielded ground. Next project might be a sky loop antenna.
Ground REALLY should be as short as possible and shielded. Curious how having the ground coiled around receiving antenna affects the properties of the antenna?
