Default UK earthling - was: Dipole-2 different wire sizes?


"Ian Jackson" napisal w wiadomosci

Every time yet another post on this subject arrives, I can't help thinking
of the limerick about the 'Young man of Devizes' (a small town in
Wiltshire, England). Those who have no idea what I'm talking about can
Google.

Perhaps there's a similar one about a radio amateur whose dipole had
unequal wire sizes?


"End-Fed Center-Fed Dipole (AKA Coaxial Vertical Dipole)

Really, that description is correct. Primarily constructed with coaxial
cable the one half wave vertical dipole is fed from its bottom but the coax
shield is left in place only up to near the center point (about ¼ wave but
the exact end point for terminating the shielding is determined by tuning)
which becomes the actual "feed-point" ergo, the description. The center
conductor continues up for about ¼ wave past the point of termination of the
shield." From:

Are the wires equal or unequal?
Is it dipole, monopole or "dipole"?
