The easy way to do that is with a relay between the coax center conductor and the L wire at the feedpoint. When the relay is open, that makes the L a 1/4 wave on 160 which is not self-resonant. The q

The QRN was "elsewhere" this summer, out in the US Midwest and in a big circle around KV4FZ, I think. So I was able to hear better than last year. F5IN called for my only European contact. He was sur

I have recently replaced some "RG-6" in use for maybe seven or eight years. I opened it up to see what was happening. The degree of oxidation on the inside and outside of the foil was perplexing. One

I'd take that question to the seller for an explanation. The filter may be intended to quiet a particular noisy device, like a PC. It only needs to be rated for the current drawn if it's on the custo

The losses in a 160 meter vertical antenna system are almost completely controlled by what you do for the antenna's counterpole (radials or counterpoise) and the electrical characteristics of the dir

What may be more destructive is a slow velocity factor in the insulated wire. There is no way to estimate that, you just have to measure it. If the VF is low, then you get into the same kind of probl
