I read the last NCJ, where K3LR 160m Dipole as sloper appears, i will like to try something like this here, but i have only 140 ft of tower, is possible to reduce the full size of the 160m dipole to a 66-70% using only the RG-58 COAX as antena not like feed, in other words use the Vel Factor from the cable that is around the 66-70 to reduce the phisical length and make posible that configuration ?
the antenna is like this I> where I tower > dipole
i try to find something abouth this but nothin show up , jus the moxon antenna using coax to reduce size, looks that work, really work ? and i can use legal power ?
i will like to hear if someone before try and the result, before buy the coax spool and just loose my time.
