Hi Guys,
I've been doing research on 160-meter Inverted L's and would appreciate your
thoughts on the following:
1) Some people report that the 160-m. Inverted L can be fed directly with 50
ohm coax with good results. Is that true?
2) Some people feed their Inverted L's with fixed 500 or 1,000 pF
capacitors. What advantages does this offer, such as: lower SWR at resonance,
and/or
increased bandwidth? (again these are "fixed" capacitors not variable)
3) Can you offer a good resource for the 500 or 1,000pF capacitors that will
handle a Kw?
I realize a variable capacitor is best as you can move around the band
better... but for this temporary 160-m. Inverted L... I'd prefer Options 1 or 2
above.
Best 73,
Dick- K9OM
