Heh!....too technical for me i`m afraid Owen....Heh heh..... :-)

I`m using a tuned RG213 stub about 2meters long as a temporary measure

for
80, till i can sort the cap problem....... i just need a simple answer

is
all.......


Well, my guess from you data is you will need about 2m of RG213, and
you will find that it "works", but it doesn't work as well as a low
loss capacitor.


True, but it works......altho` it`s very narrow band, would much prefer a
variable cap` or even a vacuum cap would be better still....can`t afford one
tho`......ho-hum......

Thanks Owen....
