Have a look at this site. Answers a lot of questions. Have fun.

Between the crap about adair and mork it's amazing people still frequent
this ng. The days of people arguing about feed line length versus swr
seems like a distant memory. Are there any old timers here who want to
try and turn the tide?





What's up OG???? LOL!!!!! Well you are right, but a good
filter doesn't hurt. It saw 89 post BBAAAAMMMMM, only
8 after filters. Going to see this collection tomorrow, wish you
& Steveo were closer, I know you two would like it.

Nice site Sharkie. Thanks. I'm more particular to the air side of defense
as the family has been building planes since the '30's. Last plane was the
F14D Super Tomcat. Its retired now so I've moved on to state of the art
telecomm's.


No problem, love military air, just more towards WWII, not the modern, push
button stuff. That collection was awesome, it was amazing the stuff that guy
has.
I'll let you know when I'm out your way, visiting the Smithsonian. We'll
make a day or two for the Air & Space museum.

Hello Jim:

Yeah 18 feet seems top work well in a mobile installation. Why is that?

Is it because the antenna puts RF Energy on the coax outer shield due to
a lack of ground surface. In all my antennas installs it seems that way.

So 18 feet of coax is roughly 3/4 of a wavelength, ( with a velocity
factory of .66) and any RF Energy coming back will have to come back
thru another 3/4 wavelength of coax.

Maybe that length vs wavelength is the best to use. Your comments....
