Well, 1 sprained ankle and 10 hornet stings later, I have the new dipole
up. Its 125 feet long, and fed with 30.9 feet of new ladderline. Its
mounted about 40 feet up, necessitating some coax from rig to balun. Ill
be replacing the ldg balun with something better down the line, but right
now, i cant afford a new one, particularly a dxe one at 130+ bux
(recommendations please)
Early tests ate positive. It seems to hear great and the tuner seems much
happier
Thanks for all the input. It made fascinating reading. More ideas and
suggestions are surely welcome
Thanks again
