Folks, I'm old, I'm tired, and I'm lazy. I'm also forgetful.

Would someone kindly provide the formula for deterring the length of a
full-wave antenna for a given frequency ( a full-wave whip comes to
mind)? Then, I can do the math. Better yet, I'll give you the
frequency and _you_ can do the math. It's 160.890 mHz.

I will never ask this question again. Sorry. Thanks, etc.

Best,

Once upon a time when I was taught physics, I was told that full wave
lenght should be calculated by dividing the speed of a light
(299820km/s) with the frequency(in MHz)/1000, so for full wave dipole
it should be 299820*160.89/1000=1.864m, for half-wave dipole divide
the result by two.
