1. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: k6ll@juno.com (David O Hachadorian); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 11:49:06 EST; I was at another contester's station not too long ago, and noticed that he had constructed his inverted vees with insulated wire, and had looped several feet of excess wire on the ends back on itself; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00351.html (8,007 bytes)
2. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: seay@Alaska.NET (Jan & Del Seay); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 08:22:18 -0800; Has several effects - capacitive hat causing a loading effect - and since it is at the voltage peak point of a dipole, hi voltage is there, but the voltage developed across 6 inches or so will not be; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00354.html (8,475 bytes)
3. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: k0rc@pclink.com (Robert Chudek); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 17:31:37 +0000; Hello Dave... I use this technique on both my 80 and 160 meter inverted vee antennas. I have about 4 feet looped back on each end. This allows me to easily drop the ends and adjust them to resonate a; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00355.html (9,455 bytes)
4. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: psoper@encore.com (Pete Soper); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 15:12:47 EST; Hi Dave, For there to be arcing there'd have to be a large potential difference which would imply that the folded back part is really an extension of the element, right?. I think it isn't, but instea; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00356.html (8,139 bytes)
5. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: w5ec@digitalexp.com (Hawkins, Bill); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 15:44:25 -0600; But Chuck, I'll bet your ends have been stripped of insulation like mine so it appears to be one wire, not a loop. Bill W5EC -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/towertalkfaq.html Submissions: to; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00357.html (10,467 bytes)
6. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: cebik@utkux.utcc.utk.edu (L. B. Cebik); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 20:27:56 -0500 (EST); In some ways the insulated fold and wrap-back of wire is convenient and not a major problem--if the wrap is mechanically sound. The wrap, although a coil, is at the end of the antenna where it does l; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00362.html (9,660 bytes)
7. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: n4kg@juno.com (T. A. Russell); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 21:17:11 EST; Dave - The voltage differential should be small and therefore little likelihood of arcing....I used to do this to tune our college club station's 75/80M dipole between cw and ssb....placed insulator; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00363.html (7,957 bytes)
8. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: K4OJ@aol.com (K4OJ@aol.com); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 23:09:55 -0500 (EST); K4 OJ Guilty of the above construction practice....never thought about it being poor form, I guess because I have successfully used it for 25+ years of making dipoles/inverted vees, etc! Now I gotta; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00370.html (7,948 bytes)
9. [TowerTalk] insulated wire wrapped-back (score: 1): Author: seay@Alaska.NET (Jan & Del Seay); Date: Sat, 22 Mar 1997 20:05:49 -0800; I Guess we Hams are always doing things that are not particularily good practice, and this is one. We were taught that the wrap back should be permanent and soldered, and I have always followed the p; /archives//html/Towertalk/1997-03/msg00371.html (8,597 bytes)
