sure that all antennas are dipoles? Tell me how my longwire antenna I

is a dipole.

Thanks in advance!!!

I'm not even sure that David's comment, whether implicitly true or not,
is relevant. RHF is right - different antenna designs are best
optimized using different transformers, depending on whether the
antenna and line is balanced or unbalanced. It appears that RHF got
the right information out in his message - even if for the thousandth
time ;-).


In an active news group such as this posts roll off the server so
occasionally repeating information is not a bad idea. Some people will
not think to Google the news group in order to see older posts.
