I used your Traveling Wave antenna. :- http://www.w5dxp.com/TravWave.EZ Good grief, Richard! You cannot use the 8.4:1 50 ohm SWR reading for the SWR on a wire with a characteristic impedance of 411 ohms. I see what you did now and it is was more than stupid. The load resistor is 411 ohms. So it was, so it is, and so shall it always be to demonstrate a dramatic variation of CURRENT. All rather standard stuff. The SWR report from EZNEC is source based, and that source was 100km distant from the RECEIVE antenna - wholly remote from my care and consideration. I didn't make your mistake, you made it alone for yourself. Mount it like a trophy on your mantle with the rest. With great misfortune, TravWave.EZ is, as you say, an atrocious antenna, and nothing like what Beverage designed which my second example more clearly reveals. I simply used your poor antenna so as to increase the likelihood of its impeachment by its designer. This, of course, triggered the script where that author condemned his own creation; and all the choreographed marks were hit precisely as anticipated. Dear readers, With such limp struggles as offered by Cecil, this has long passed the point of being a challenge. It rarely takes much effort to crack his arguments open, but having done it several times here alone, it can only be described as a Sado-Masochistic spectacle. My arm is getting tired with swinging the whip and Cecil's groans have long since lost their siren call. Perhaps some future outrage from Cecil will invigorate the song of the lash. When dawn breaks, it will no doubt reveal TravWave.EZ disowned and cast out of the home as a fraud. I will undoubtedly be described as its immoral progenitor because TravWave.EZ is so obviously the spawn of a demented troglodyte slipped into Cecil's nest like a cuckoo's egg. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |
