[Towertalk] Ladderline near tower

   I'm thinking of trying a dipole fed with old-
fashioned 600-ohm ladderline.

   It occurs to me that, because the dipole will be 
center-hung from my tower, that I might ought to pay 
more attention to interaction possibilities with this 
feedline than when feeding a wire antenna with coax.

   Any advice/warnings about how to approach a tower-
hung dipole with open-wire feeders?
