1. Re: [TowerTalk] 43ft Vertical Feeding Question and Balun type (score: 1)
Author: "Joe Reisert, W1JR" <W1JR@arrl.net>

Hi Gang, There is magic about a 43 foot vertical but it isn't what most people think. It's 5/8 wavelength at 20 meters, clearly a good maximum performance antenna for DX on that band with a vertical.

Will, Yes. The LCA coils are identical for the 40-2CD and XM-240 but I would first replace the terminations with good stainless steel screws and then put a protective covering over same before replac

Steve etal, Sorry but the 0.5 in the first line on losses. That was obviously a typo. It should have been 0.05. You can see that by seeing that I gave an example and that value is correct. Thanks for

Hi Manius, The insertion loss of a good N connector is equal to the square root of F (in GHz) times a constant (K). The constant for a single N connector is 0.5. Therefore, at 23 CM (1.3 GHz) the los

John and company, The "T" match in this antenna configuration first matches the driven element of the antenna to a balanced 200 Ohms. The combination of the length of the driven element and the Tee s

Jim etal, I also measured the effect of ground radials when I loaded my 70 foot tower (with 40 meter beam on top) on 160 meters. I used an HP 9753C network analyzer and a non resonant loop about 6 fe

Greg, The impedance of the Skyhawk is about 50 Ohms resistive. The balun is a ferrite one (similar to W2DU) made by Cal Aviation. 73, Joe, W1JR _______________________________________________ _______

Hi Arnie, I guess there has been a discussion on baluns going on. Let me add a few comments on the subject. First off, there are alternatives or choices on transmission line types used in coax baluns

Carlos, I am using a modified 30 meter beam with parts from a 40-2CD. Basically, the top hat rods (36" elements after the inductor) are removed. Next, the spacing is reduced to 140". The boom could b

Hi Charlie, Sounds like the Cushcraft model 40-2CD. There are no traps. They are loading coils and a capacity hat. The data sheet/assembly manual should be on the Cushcraft website. 73, Joe, W1JR ___

Terry, I had the same problem with 6 conductor line. I guess 60 Hz pickup. I don't know if capacitance on the line is a problem but I used RG59 coax on the reed relay line and the problem went away.

Gordon, One of the "rules-of-thumb" used with tubing is to overlap 2-3 times the diameter of the element. Therefore, 5" is great on 1.625" tubing while only about 2-1/2" is needed on the .875" diamet
