My first Novice 80 CW antenna was a true Windom. W1GID, Ralph Tedford,
one of my early Elmers, installed it for me. I ran an ARC 5 transmitter
into it. Funny thing though, I kept getting tingling sensations off the
key until I lengthened the feed line about 25 feet :-)


I also ran an ARC 5 into an OCF when I was in college. Used 300 ohm
twinlead and a Heathkit air-core balun. Worked well enough for WAS-2.
