I was wondering about the possibility or practicality of doing this where a long run would exist from the shack to the antenna. Cost wise it would be cheaper than hardline and should avoid some of th

Yes, it works fine; and is described in both the 16th and 17th editions of the ARRL Antenna Book, Chap 24. In the 16th edition see page 24-21 and Fig. 27 of that chapter; in the 17th edition the same

Steve, this issue was brought up earlier this year and here is my offline response to the following comment that was made during the previous discussion: This is BS (Bogus Speculation)! I have used a

Depends upon how you connent the parallel runs of coax: to quote from the ARRL Antenna Book, 17th ed, pg. 24-18: " Shieled balanced lines have several advantages over openwire lines. Since there is n

double. In at round impedance. But Ronald, the R in R+/-jX in the coax cable's characteristic impedance is what is 50 ohms, not the loss resistance of the wire! The R which is 50 ohms in the characte

Jim, I really wanted to believe that it was this simple, but it isn't. It doesn't matter how many lines you series or parallel--the signal gets divided between the lines, the lines each do their los

Hi Pete, Well if the two transmission lines are identical and everything is matched, then one half of the RF current is going to flow in each line. Note that to be matched the source and load impedan

no, power is i-squared*Z0 so 1/2 the power is .707 times the current. again, .707 of the original current .707 squared is .5 add the two .5's and you have the same loss. look at a simpler case: 1. yo

The inner surface of the shield is on the job for the single unbalanced coax run, replaced by the second center conductor for the balanced case. So there is some difference in ohmic loss but wouldn't

Bob, the original discussion was about using the two CENTER conductors of coaxial cable as a balanced and SHIELDED transmission line. In that case you gain nothing as far as reducing the losses over

Pete Soper asks about using a pair of coax cables as a balanced line. The signals inside these two lines don't know the difference from normal use. Any moisture will disturb the loss and will affect

FB Pete! It is great to see some new thinking on quad matching. You are absolutely correct about the impedance issue as the coax center conductor/shield spacing is fixed. It is my understanding that
