Jack, You may have a misconception about impedance here. Making the antenna resonant is not going to make it 50 Ohms. Extrapolating your numbers, it looks like resonance would be at around 6.9 MHz, and give you an impedance of something like 12 + j0. Might be a good match to a 1:4 (not 4:1) balun, but you would have to see what happens on the other bands. Tam/WB2TT Just a silly thought: If he made it resonant and had, indeed, 12 ohms, couldn't he make it into a folded dipole giving 12x4=48 ohms and probably a better bandwidth? (Of course this is assuming monoband operation) EA3FYA - Toni |
