It's really no different than coax, except for what John is hinting at. You have to keep it away from metal objects. Like coax, I always try to arc around a corner, rather than making a square bend.

 I am assuming you will have it attatched to a stand off on both sides of the bend. If yes I would think it would work. ( Here is my reason why .. I have several 90deg coax adaptors on my amplifier a

Ladderline behaves differently from coax, and there might be a small impedance "bump" if you turn it abruptly through 90 degrees; however, in many ladderline applications that wont matter. It certain

Good advice Steve. A transmission line impedance "bump" is generally only an issue when the line must be terminated into its characteristic impedance. In that case, the impedance on the line as a fu

Yes, but it ought to be done gently and it ought to be spaced 4 to 6 inches from everything, especially metals. It should be twisted so both conductor approach objects evenly. Not a rapid spiral but

Vince, it is better to do a curved bend, but you can transition 90 degrees with such a curve. If you meant a sharp 90 degree angle in the line, I would not do that, as you would encourage the line to

In other words, do it like our shop teacher used to tell us: "Round every corner"! What happens if you don't. For many years I ran an openwire fed doublet, about 130 ft. total length. I fed it with t

You have to do what you have to do. Keep the ladder line space with 1 1/2 or more with a small piece of PVC. If the obstruction is metal house siding I would try to find a different route cause it ma

Trouble with introducing a balun is that sometimes ladder line is used to allow a wide tuning range and so there can be a wild set of impedances and SWR on the ladder line that the balun can't handle

Jerry, That shouldn't happen with a well-designed 1:1 Guanella Balun, which is the preferred choice for wide-band, wide-impedance-excusion, applications. Unlike a 4:1 Guanella balun or 4:1 Ruthroff b

But Steve, the original post suggesting the balun specifically said 1:4 impedance ratio to transform open line impedances to a better match in coax where the coax is also far more tolerant to bends a

Jerry, I was addressing my comments to your application, which I assumed - maybe wrongly - was a balanced-line-fed multiband doublet. The balun I referenced is aimed at 160m thru 40m use; but even at
