My main concern was that trying to tune a 100 foot dipole on 75M might cause problems due to the dipole being shorter than halfwave on 75M. From what I am now concluding from your comments, and others', this probably won't be an issue? Walter Maxwell of "Reflections" fame recommends a minimum length for a dipole of 3/8 wavelength. 102 ft is 3/8 wavelength on about 3.6 MHz so it should and does work well. That's the length of my dipole. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp |
