Not only the price, but the lossses. My open wire line is about 500' long. It runs 380 feet horizontal from the shack to directly beneath the center insulator on my 133' dipole 160' in the air. I us

The proof of the pudding in store-bought tuners is usually 160 meters. The two capacitors in the "T" configuration are usually 200-250pf each; not near enough for the proper L/C ratio on Top Band. T

I need 4 vacuum relays to switch my 80m 4-square between the SSB and CW windows. Since they will be installed at the ends of dipoles, the voltage requirement is high. Speed is of no concern, so the p

Maybe it could be their trying to re-invent the way vertical antennas work and their deceptive ads(that prey upon unknowing new hams) that we don't like. If the instruction book on any vertical ante
