[TowerTalk] End of coax impedance question

Greetings, all --

      I've got a question. Sometimes when you measure the shack end of a coax
run with an antenna analyzer, you get a different reading than when you plug
it into the rig. What is the simple reason for this? I remember recently
reading the answer on TowerTalk but I'll be darned if I can find it in the
last couple of months. 

      If you think there's a lot of information in the TowerTalk archives (and
a lot of traffic on TowerTalk) - you're right. There were approximately 775 TT
messages in April, 850 in May and 1130 in June. I checked the archives before
I posted this.

     Any input appreciated. 

Cheers,  Steve  K7LXC
