"Arrow146" wrote in message ... If the antenna is an electrical 1/4 wave then it is a 1/4 wave antenna, even if it is physically shortened by use of coils. Alex / AB2RC If that is true, then there is no such thing as a 5/8 wave antenna. They would be 3/4 wave antennas. Don't think so. 73 Al Lowe N0IMW Al, This was the basis of my thoughts on the subject too, Im the OP. Im of the opinion an antenna shorter than 1/4 wll should either be identified by its fractional wl dimension or as a loaded x freq antenna y units long. Otherwise those who advertise 5/8 antennas that are physically 1/8wl long have every right to do so. |
