can you put an antenna analyzer on it?
If you can estimate the dominant impedance, you would have a better idea of
how to match it up.
I would be tempted to wind a 4-to-one balun on a toroid and put it at the
end of the coax to feed the wire - but I would be guessing.

om...
Gentlemen,
I installed a 140 ft wire in hopes to match it on all HF bands. It
plays nicely through my ATU. I would like to modify this setup by
using about 20 ft.of coax inside the house (for a better look). Is
there a known matching scheme to accomodate the wire to the coax? What
other problems might I encounter?
Thanks for any help
