EZNEC sez 11:1 with a feedpoint impedance of 100-j200 ohms.

Hey Cecil -

I got:

Impedance = 85.26 - J 186.3 ohms
SWR (50 ohm system) = 10.337 (75 ohm system) = 7.308

Let's see if we can determine why they don't match.

I adjusted the wire length for no reactance at 7.2 MHz.
I used 99 segments of #14 wire. I did not include insulation effects.

How about yours?
