Best Answer

To build a 1/4 wave 40m vertical with elevated radials using insulated wire, the formula is:

234 / operating frequency x 0.95804

The number 0.95804 is a constant used when insulated wire is used.

Example: 234 / 7.2 = 32.5 feet x .95804 = 31.14 feet or (31 feet 1.7 inches)

This antenna is best when elevated 8 to 10 feet above ground. Radials are also elevated. A minimum of 3 radials spaced 120 degrees apart can be used. More is always better. This type of configuration has a very nice low takeoff angle some wheres between 10 - 20 degrees.

Can you replace an XM radio antenna with any other antenna like a 3ft hard cb antenna?

You can replace an XM radio antenna with a CB antenna, a ham 40-meter mobile antenna, a cellphone antenna, a GPS antenna, a TV antenna, a wire coat hanger, a 6 GHz microwave antenna, or a chain of paperclips. However, since none of them is optimized to operate at the frequencies of XM radio, like the XM antenna is, none of the others will work as well. Most of them will likely be so inefficient at the satellite radio frequencies that when you use one of those, you hear nothing at all on your radio.

Is an insulated green grounding conductor required for amateur radio equipment?

You need a ground (which should be insulated because if you ever get energy on that wire it's going to be very high voltage) on any radio system with an outside antenna because of lightning - lightning likes to find the biggest conductor it can to go to, and your antenna is probably the biggest conductor on your block...especially if you like working the 40-meter, 80-meter and 160-meter bands. If your antenna gets struck by lightning, the ground will help direct the electricity to ground rather than to your headset.
