I have heard it given as, "speed of light times mu naught."
However, I have not examined proof of this, and actually, that is claimed to be the impedance of space itself (a vacuum), "air" maybe slight different. Anyway, I adopted it simply because it seems to be accepted--do a "google search" with the search terms: [ impedance either 377 ohms ] You will either find your proofs there, or not....

Even if there were such a thing as the 'ether' (there isn't;
elecromagnetic waves don't need a medium to propagate), I dunno, but doesn't this bring up 'particle theory vs wave theory' waves require a medium to propogate (I would think) - and - particles can be shot across a medium-less void Maybe this will all go back to the 'previous discussion' ain't no such thing as heat and no such thing as time - and therefore anything else defined by using either of those terms do not exist either. |

"John Smith" wrote in message ... That is why "UnUn" is in the subject, "Unbalanced-to-Unbalanced." Or, was that just me feeling a bit unbalanced with all this "antenna theory?" grin So are you saying that - in theory - that a balun (or un-un) (or lets just say "An impedence matching device") can serve to propogate RF into the 'ether' (free space) ? Did you try it out in practice - to see if it works ? What's the impedence of 'ether' ? didn't you mention something around 300-400 ohms ? If so was that at all freqs? |

or, some might interpret that last line, from the post above (We, being the
fishes "Gods", know better... ), to be, "We are no better than the fish!" grin Regards, John "John Smith" wrote in message ... | Let me give a more understandable example of the above...

I just am going on others work? beliefs? fantasies? as to the impedance of
space being 377 ohms, a google search will provide you with examples of the material I viewed... use the search terms: [ "377 ohms" either site:edu ] == DO NOT include the square bracktes--it will only return papers, docs, etc. from universities (site:edu does the limiting, being interpreted by google as a command of, "Show me ONLY papers from universities/"educational institutions"--and, NOTE the colon between "site" and "edu".) Yes, I am so bold and ignorant as that!!! I am beginng to view "space" not as "nothing" but as real a conductor as the feedline to my antenna--it being (space) a feedline completly surrounding and physically connected to my antenna (omnidirectional--balun/UnUn), and therefore conducting my rf away in an omnidirectional pattern, unless I substitute a beam (or other "directional antenna") which "blocks" or "impedes" this "contact" to the either in one or more directions... Why, do you think it is time (well, "time" is NOT real--so a silly question) I should check in for a three-day mental observation? grinning-like-a-damn-fool Warmest regards, John "Hal Rosser" wrote in message ... | | "John Smith" wrote in message | ... | That is why "UnUn" is in the subject, "Unbalanced-to-Unbalanced." | | Or, was that just me feeling a bit unbalanced with all this "antenna | theory?" grin | | So are you saying that - in theory - that a balun (or un-un) (or lets just | say "An impedence matching device") can serve to propogate RF into the | 'ether' (free space) ? | Did you try it out in practice - to see if it works ? | What's the impedence of 'ether' ? didn't you mention something around | 300-400 ohms ?

It is generally accepted that EM waves cannot propagate outside of the universe precisely because of the absence of any structure (medium). Our medium of space is thought to have at least ten dimensions. -- 73, Cecil ============================== Life forms which think can have any number of dimensions. Physical size is unrestricted. From quantum size upwards. They are as fully equipped to handle their environments as humans are equipped to handle theirs. Otherwise they wouldn't be there. There's no reason why thinking life forms should not be as large as the Galaxies or even Groups of Galaxies. Groups of Galaxies have more than one head. Inevitably they are exceedingly slow thinkers when measured in our time scales. On the other hand, they have the Whole of Eternity in which to solve their problems, dragging us puny insignificant creatures along with them for one short microscopic period. As experienced on this tiny Earth, they appear to be suffering from epileptic fits at this moment in time. Elementary Statistics should be the 4th most important subject taught in our schools after reading, writing and doing sums. Kids should be able to estimate the probabilty of being run over by a bus when they cross a busy street. Hope you get the drift of my thoughts before returning to the TLI. ;o) ---- Reg, G4FGQ |

Yes, "how big is your yardstick?"
Imagine this, "I am now holding out a "yardstick" three-feet long--on an atom of the plastic, in the keyboard I am typing on, and, on an electron of that atom and circling its nucleus, is my counterpart, holding out his "yardstick"--which he believes is three-feet long... or, wait, is that my male ego just saying, "Mine is bigger than yours--Na-na-na-Na!" grin Warmest regards, John "Reg Edwards" wrote in message ... | | It is generally accepted that EM waves | cannot propagate outside of the universe precisely because | of the absence of any structure (medium).

.... and, I forgot to mention, this "blocking" or "Impeding" action exhibited
by the beam, also, caused the signal to be reflected in another direction... .... much like an inductance seems a "resistance" at a specific radio freq....
