- Topbanders, for the construction of the beverage ( a 2 wire reversible beverage, that is) from my post a few days ago i wanted to know how to measure or determine the impedance of the open wire. I st

- Hello Martin, I have other equations here: www.w0btu.com/bev_ant_impedance-math.html Other charts, matching transformer ratios, etc. are on www.w0btu.com/Beverage_antennas.html 73, Mike www.w0btu.com

- With both ends open, measure capacitance C of DUT, divide it by it's length ( C' = C/m) . Shorten one end, measure inductance of DUT, divide it by length ( L' = L/m) . Now calculate Z= 1000 * squarer

- Another line Z measurement technique is with a scope and reasonably fast risetime (few nsec) pulse generator. Terminate about a 20' length of line with a variable non-inductive pot or carbon comp res

- Here's another method that's based on the engineering textbook transmission line equation and use of an impedance analyzer to make an impedance measurement. You can look up the transmission line equa

- What I used for data transmission line Z finding was a pulse gen, scope and variable resistor (non inductive). A fast risetime pulse reflects very clearly on the scope at the source. When the termina

- Topbanders, thanks for all the valuable input. So far i can say the beverage was of great help in the past 160m contest although it still is not optimized. At DL0WH, we didn't work much, we rather te
