An incorrect model was fed into the program. The feedline actually radiates
like the clappers and the whole thing behaves like an inverted-L with a small 3 metres spur which does very little. If the severe off-centre feedpoint MUST be used, probably the best way to feed the antenna is via an open-wire line and just accept whatever impedance is presented to the tuner, via a good choke, at the transmitter end. As the antenna will have the crude general characteristics of a long, random length, inverted-L, why not go the whole way - erect an inverted-L and feed it against ground? Easily modelled and tuned. It also becomes multi-band. You won't need a particularly good ground connection. --- Reg, G4FGQ |
