Default Need design info on coax traps for dipoles

For a dual-band 80m/40m dipole using resonant traps, how can I figure out
the capacitor voltage rating I need for each power level?


For a rough approximation, you can model the trap as
a stub with the same VF and Z0 as the coil. Equations
(32) and (51) in the following IEEE paper are useful
for that purpose.
