I'm putting up a fullwave loop for 160m, fed with 450 ohm window line, what are the feedline lenghts to avoid? Just on 160m or on other HF bands? A fullwave loop has a feedpoint impedance around 100 ohms plus or minus height effects. That's an SWR of 4.5:1 on the window line giving impedances between 100 ohms and 2000 ohms with reactance magnitudes in the same ballpark. If your tuner will handle those ranges, any feedline length will be OK. It's a lot easier to avoid certain feedline lengths on 10m than on 160m. :-) -- 73, Cecil, W5DXP |
