Thanks to all for the advice on measuring velocity factor.

I suspended 53.25 feet of JSC #1317 18-AWG balanced line in the
backyard.

To verify the results, I tried entering the .89 velocity factor to get
the length of the line, and it kept coming in at a 26.6 foot length --
oh, well.

That sounds pretty close to half of the physical line length you
mentioned.

Yep. For selected values of 1/2 ...... HI!HI!
