Reg, I dug up some calculations from sci.physics.electromag
from about a year ago that indicate one foot of 50 ohm coax
on each side of the Bird is enough to make the line real,
i.e. not imaginary, and that's a conservative estimate.

============================================

Cec, you forgot to say sci.physics.electromag were working at 500 MHz
and above. The one and only so-called SWR meter I have stops at 30
MHz. ;o)
