Re: [TenTec] A bit off topic...antenna question

[Mike Bryce <prosolar@sssnet.com>]

ran an ten tec 50 ohm dry dummy load out to the antenna end of the  
coax... squirted some rf into the line..

perfect swr with 100 watts of RF


band is 40 meters, as the antenna is marked..

thanks for the note on the shorted input.... My arrl antenna book  
only describes this antenna in a few paragraphs...

I'll add on some wire at the ends and see if I can find some spot  
where the swr drops...

as it is, when you select this antenna, the radio goes silent
