Antenna Pattern: Carolina Windom

I did some QRP into California on 80 meters during a contest, and I worked what I heard. That doesn't specifically mean that the antenna performed well, but it does mean that I worked QRP into California on 80 from the middle of PA. How will you model the radiating feedline? I suppose one could just put a "wire" in the model to represent the coax shield (which is what radiates) and tie it to something useful. Someone's probably figured out what the equivalent impedances are for the "isolator" and "balun" that form part of that antenna. Maybe googling "NEC model Carolina Windom" might turn up something useful. |
