Hello,
I do have a problem that, due to a lack of knowledge, I can't find the
solution.
I did measure the 4 towers of my 4 square when they were not phased, e.g.
them all were disconnected, and fed each one at a time to found out the
following VSWR values:
Tower 1: 3.800 1:1.41
Tower 2: 3.800 1:1.59
Tower 3: 3.800 1:1.54
Tower 4: 3.800 1:1.48
I have a spreadsheet (57 kbytes) with the complete measured values and a
graph as well.
All towers have an aluminium tube at the end which allows to either make it
shorter or longer. The question is: based on these values how long do I have
to increase each one, e.g., towers numbers 2, 3 and 4, in order to have them
all set to the same VSWR value, I?d say 1:1.41.
As far as I know the 4 towers when phased will have low VSWR values due to
the mutual impedance. Am I right?
Thanks in advance for any help.
