     Greetings,

     Okay, so I'm thinking about extending my 1/4-wavelength "inverted-L"
     out to 170 feet (+/-) and putting a (air-variable) capacitor at the 
feedpoint.
     I know I'll need something like a 500 to 1000 pf cap. However, what
     voltage rating? And, if you have a brand/catalog number, that'd be 
great.

     Enjoying the TopBand chatter (well, most of it, anyway) and look 
forward
     to any replies to the above question(s). Have fun on the gentlemen's 
band.
