Hi all - I am in the process of doing some station layout changes and some recabling in the process. Just for the heck of it, I pulled an old (maybe 20 years?) 20 ft length of a no-name, foam dielect

Well, doing some back calculating, this almost sounds correct, except you didn't include the Z you measured. There is a rule of thumb that Insertion Loss is roughly equal to one half the Return Loss

Barry, try it with the end shorted and use the SWR/graph version of the test. Either way, 20 ft is probably too short to get a good test. We use it a lot here on incoming inspections, and the thing c

<< Following Autek's instructions, I tuned for minimum Z. At 28 Mhz, according to their formula, my loss was 1.3 db and at 7 Mhz it was 0.7 db! I used the formula 0.17 x Z = loss in db (for 50 ohm co
