Default Isolation of guy wires

"Ralph Mowery" ha scritto nel messaggio
link.net...
Has anyone thought of trying to use some of the ferrite beads to isolate the
guy wires of a tower for RF so the tower could be shunt fed ? Along the same
lines could the beads be used to electrically brake up the wires into non
resonate lengths ?


The inductance of a piece of wire passing through a ferrite bead would be way
too low to produce a discernible choking effect at HF frequencies.

Ever heard of a w2du balun? http://w2du.com/r3ch21a.pdf
How about passing the wire through 50 #77 beads as
recommended by the ARRL Antenna Book?
