I've only measured two of them, Reg. I measured "450" ohm ladder-line VF at approximately 0.9 and "300" ohm ladder- line at ~0.8. I was surprised since I assumed it would be opposite those results. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp ================================== Cec, the lower value for 300-ohm ladder line, compared with 450-ohm ladder line, is what I would expect. Thanks for the figures. It is the increase in capacitance between the two wires, due to the permittivity of the insulation and because the wires are closer together, which causes the decrease in velocity. ---- Reg. |
