RSGB RadCom December 2007 Issue
Those that can get access to a copy should look at the Radio Society of
Great Britain, RadCom Magazine, December 2007 issue, Technical Topics column
by Pat Hawker G3VA. The topic? 50 Years of amateur antennas. He covers a lot
of the perennial topics of debate in this newsgroup and provides some
excellent commentary on element lengths, feedline lengths, SWR, ATU's, modes
of operation and some of the controversy. Okay, it has probably all been
covered elsewhere in books, on websites and in this newsgroup, but there is
a lot of useful information condensed into a couple of pages. Almost a
substitute fro Kraus and Terman! :-)
