Re: [TenTec] Resonant antennas

["Stuart Rohre" <rohre@arlut.utexas.edu>]

Why go to all that work Jim, or continually raising and lowering antennas on
Field Day?

Pick a gain antenna that will tune multiple bands, like an extended Double
Zepp, and a good efficient tuner, and you can go anywhere in the bands.

Resonance means one thing and one thing only, that at ONE particular
frequency, that antenna has zero reactance, and impedance is purely
resistive.  (The antenna is neither long nor short for that ONE frequency.)
