[TowerTalk] C31 - 1 feed line or 3

[Don Havlicek]

Where did you make those measurements?

If at the shack end of the coax, they are quite meaningless as to 
antenna resonance.

The only way to get the correct measurements is AT THE ANTENNA.

Sorry, but too many guys/gals put their SWR meters at the shack end of 
the coax and try to determine what the ANTENNA looks like from there.

It just doesn't work that way.
