Here are some pics of the antenna:

This should form an air spaced graduated impedance "converter" without the need for a minimum loss pad. If I could just get a more easily solderable stereo phone jack.... Maybe even one rated for RF.... Yours, Doug Goncz ( ftp://users.aol.com/DGoncz/incoming ) Student member SAE for one year. I love: Dona, Jeff, Kim, Mom, Neelix, Tasha, and Teri, alphabetically.
