Following the recent discussion of open wire feedlines,
I've compiled a 3-page PDF with some useful details.

The 70 KB file can be downloaded from:
  http://www.geocities.com/va3ttn

Basic definitions and explanations are given,
along with two tables giving total loss and additional loss
in the presence of mismatch.

Open wire lines can achieve "low loss in presence of high SWR"
only to a limited extent, just like other lines.
The tables given should assist in making right decisions.
