If I have an RG-58 coax and it is shorted at the load end. At the electrical
1/8 wave lenght what would be the impedance seen at the other end?

I understand that a shorted 1/4 wave length reflects an open, but was
interested in what happens at the 1/8 wave frequency.


For lossless coax, it would be purely reactive, close to +jZ0. Questions
like that are easy when one understands the Smith Chart.
