![]() "Roy Lewallen" wrote in message ... Those impedances seem pretty low for a folded monopole, unless the conductor diameter is large. When modeling two parallel wires like a folded monopole or dipole with any NEC-2 based program, it's essential that the segment junctions be aligned. For the folded dipole or monopole, simply make the wires the same lengths and give them the same number of segments. Roy Lewallen, W7EL You are correct again. I had different numbers of segments of the parallel wires. When the segments are about the same number, the terminal impedance goes up. I am also trying to run as many segments as practical so the accuracy is greatest. John |
