6" at 160 meters, 1/8" at 2m. E.g. less than 0.001 wave length. Might accept 0.01 wavelength. 73, Jerry, K0CQ _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com

doc, I am missing something here you said for 160M .001 - .01 Wave length right? For 80M I come up with 3.4 to 24 inches spaceing. That does not sound right, or is it? Keep The Faith, Jim K9TF/WA9YSD

Well, I figure I couldn't say 6" was too wide on 160m while I allowed 1/4" on 1296 or even 1/2" on 2m, though I know 3/4" is probably actually too wide at 6m. The closer the spacing, the better. And

I am using homebrew ladderline with 4 1/2 inch spacing to feed a 230 ft horizontal loop. Would you consider that to be excessive for use on 10 meters I am using the loop on 80 thru 10 meters. Can red

Jerry & Jim Although it is not as loss free as pure open wire I am fond of the 250 Ohm TwinCom. It can be laid like coax and gets little (if any) interference from its surroundings. http://www.titane

Its probably on the wide side, just means the feedline gets to help with the radiation more than if it was closer spaced. If you aren't annoyed by computer hash from appliances or 10m TVI, I'd keep o

Nice sturdy stuff. Loss should be reasonable up through UHF anyway, better than coax, though 250 ohms isn't quite a handy value for a simple coaxial balun to match to a 50 ohm transmitter... but its

Spacing for power handling right. I believe 6 inch was used because of long distant runs say 300 feet or more. To the antennas back in the horse and buggy days, I mean Model T days. They used High im

Until the spacing gets to radiating, a wider spacing for a particular conductor size has less loss because the higher impedance leads to lower current, providing the line is matched. I've heard (once

Remember that the amount of insulation to wire ratio increases the loss of a transmission line. Thus, coax being dense insulation has higher loss than ladder line, with sparse plastic. The loss tange
