Ok, so what is special about these lengths of wires
for Beverages and long wire antenna legs? I see
W3LPL, Frank, specifying same for beverage lengths,
and Lloyd Colvin, way back in 1956, specified 584'
as a great length for V-beam legs(QST, 8/56)?
Does not seem to be a multiple of any band's wave
length that I can calculate; of course, I may
be doing it incorrectly!!
73 and Aloha,
Jim, KH7M
PS: Now have 600 feet of wire out on all four V legs;
never mind that is not straight out!! Hope to have
them connected and tweaked by 0000 UTC for CQWW!!
