Aside from marketing BS.. Owen raises a good point. You bring the feedpoint Z from 31.8+j2 to 51+j150. Resonating the j150 with a -j150 is fine, but now,you've effectively got a resonant circuit with moderately high Q, or, at the very least, more circulating power between matching network and antenna. |

Owen point it is also good, but seems to me it is a little odd biased by the others claims of Mosley people :) I think that if Owen "forget Mosley" perhaps he could give another chance to the system itself. For example = not all directive antennas needs a great bandwidth... However 4NEC2 simulation seem to favor the system we are analyzing. Adding an ideal reactance of -155 ohms coarsely in the first segment to the right of the central segment of mentioned provided 4NEC2 model with lengthen driven element and doing a 13 to15 MHz frequency sweep I got a lightly increment on VSWR bandwidth of approximately 200 kHz and a decreasing of VSWR at resonance from aprox 1.5:1 to 1:1 (perhaps for the localization of capacitive reactance on model?). Finally, maybe I am also a little biased because my third speculation was viable and that made me feel happy, hi hi :D 73 Miguel Ghezzi LU6ETJ |

: Adding an ideal reactance of -155 ohms Bit is not a fixed reactance, it is a transmission line element, and you should model it as that, even if lossless. Owen |

I'm go to ZZZZZ If you specified it in wavelengths, wouldn't that have a constant reactance. The real stub is a fixed physical length, and its reactance changes with frequency. Owen- Ocultar texto de la cita - - Mostrar texto de la cita - Good morning (here) Mr. Duffy It was in meters... Please, remember the proposition to validate or refute. Once validated (if it is), then we could think about details You know, I was not trying to find out if it is the best matching method but whether it is a viable method. For example: In precedent post I said I was using a "coarsely" reactance for a basic hypothesis test because my dictionary suggest that word, perhaps I should have written: rudely? approximately? SRI, this is not my natural language and I may not adequately explained my goal... Miguel Ghezzi LU6ETJ |

Hi Miguel, Coarse, Rude, Approximate are the correct forms as adjectives that describe things. Coarsely, Rudely, Approximately are forms of adverbs that describe actions. Any of the six words are easily understood in context. I understand your goal. Newsgroup behavior is about speaking more completely to the larger audience. Thus, other's will add commentary to your goal. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

Owen In the Mosley case, judging from the writeup at the link supplied a few days ago, the series capacitor is sufficiently short (a few inches?), that it's probably safe to consider it a lumped element. Isn't it just a wire in the middle of a tube.. essentially a coaxial capacitor. |

Isn't it just a wire in the middle of a tube.. essentially a coaxial capacitor. True. Since delta f is small (aprox 2%), considering it a plain condenser, reactance variation between 14 and 14.3 MHz is from 150 to 146.6 ohm; considering it a transmission line variation is from 150 to 146.8 -worthless- In the worst case, thinking it as a coaxial condenser could have a higher error on cable length calculation more than in the reactancev variation with frequency. |
