Nice post freecell! Thanks for saving me from knocking the dust off the tech-books. Your information is not inconsistant with what I have learned over the years. :D

Hi freecell. I stand corrected. Thanks. Feedline length doesn't matter at unity.

Length Matters The characteristic impedance of a given feedline is repeated only at half-wave multiples that is determined by operating frequency and velocity factor of the feedline. You should avoid quarter-wave multiples as they will always be reactive. In pinch, you can tune out the...

Hi QRN. Yeah, I remember Norham and Atlantic. I didn't have a problem back then either. This happened two years ago. They shipped me bad product. And after speaking to Jack, Jeff, and Angelo, the thing that really choked me up was nobody even said "sorry". After all the thousands of dollars I...
