Greg,
Aside from the electrical affects of twisting the
twin lead you also have the benefit of making it less
affected by wind. It 'flops' around less than if it
wasn't twisted. Ever noticed how the 'tape' advertising
thingys are really affected by wind if they are ~not~
twisted?

Thanks Doc. This is is all very useful information I will bear this all in
mind when I am making up my next antenna. That's one good thing about this
hobby there is always something new to learn.
Cheers
