Buddy, I thought that Gap antenna's don't require a counterpoise 
system because they have a built-in one.  Still trying to figure 
this out.  Jim WA6EKS

I've got one of those, too.  Mine has a high SWR on 15 and 12 
meters.  =
Need to find someone with an analyzer to help me adjust it I 
guess.  The =
only problem is that occasionally, the counterpoise wire falls 
down.=20

 The Gap Titan antenna does not require ground radials, so they 
say.  =
Gap
 makes a number of antennas including one that covers
 160 meters, but it's 45 feet tall and has a capacitance hat on 
it.  =
The
 Titan is a 25 foot antenna that covers 10 through 80 meters and 
costs =
$429 I
 think.  Would be interested in feedback about Gap antennas if 
anyone =
has
 information on them.  Jim WA6EKS
