Welding Rod J-Pole Possible?

I made one of these sleeve antennas for 10M with the folded back shield, put a KW on it and it arced through the black vinyl. It's a standing wave antenna. The voltage at the end of the shield is approximately 20 times the voltage at the feedpoint. For a KW, that's more than 5 kV, too much for ordinary coax. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |
