"Cecil Moore" a écrit dans le message de om... I have no idea what your (or Tom's) agenda is but it is apparently to convince everyone that shortcuts are useless and only gurus like yourself can bestow the sacred cow knowledge of antennas on us, the unwashed masses. Cecil Moore is a troll and a crackpot. So? What's wrong with that? Cecil is also a fine Texas ham who prods many of us into gaining a deeper knowledge of antennas and transmission lines by challenging our closely held assumptions and making us think more deeply about things we thought we knew. Reg does the same thing, but less tenaciously. As irritating as these gentlemen can be, they perform a valuable function on this newsgroup.

"---as frequency is increased past quarter-wave resonance, I`ve noticed with interest that both reactance and resistance peak at different times, as they increase with frequency toward the half-wave point." At the end of the ARRL Antenna Book edoition 19 chapter on Antenna Fundamentals is a bibliography which includes P.H. Lee`s "The Amateur Radio Vertical Antenna Handbook". In my 1974 edition, there are Figs. 18(A) Vertical Antenna Base Resistance and 18(B) Base Reactance, versus height in wavelengths. Figs. 18(A) and (B) clearly show the variation of R and X just short of 1/2-wavelength and their dependence on the characteristic impedance of the antenna. If the "Antenna Book" doesn`t have the information, one of the bibliography books most lilkely does. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |

You have no data, no measurements, and no references for your "approximation." It is simply another of the Old Wife's Tales genre. Well, since you deleted my reference, we can assume your intent is unethical, uncivil, and irrational. It's essentially a no-brainer, Richard. The resonant feedpoint impedance for a 1/2WL resonant dipole is around 60 ohms. The anti-resonant resonant feedpoint impedance for a one-wavelength dipole is around 6000 ohms. Between those two values of frequency, the reactance goes from zero, peaks, and goes back to zero. How you can argue with that is beyond belief. All this is clearly shown in my references that you deleted. Why are you afraid to face the facts? -- 73, Cecil, W5DXP |

None of which support your "approximation" Uhhhhh Richard, Those graphs in the ARRL Antenna Book are the *ORIGIN* of my approximation. Exactly what is it about those graphs that you disagree with? It is obvious from viewing the graphs that the maximum reactance is about 1/2 of the maximum resistance. It is also obvious that the resistance at the maximum reactance point is about 1/2 of the maximum resistance. That's exactly what my approximation said. -- 73, Cecil, W5DXP -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |
