How about not worrying what to call it, period? Just realize that the entire assembly from the antenna connector on the transceiver to the connector on the driven element is simply an....
Impedance Matching Network (or Assembly if you prefer or even Impedance Matching Device, because all of those elements act in concert. The method by which you accomplish this task is all but irrelevant really.... All that REALLY matters is that you develop an IMN that meets your impedance requirements within the required bandwidth and sufficiently robust to bear the brunt of the max power contemplated. 73, ______________________ Clay Autery, KY5G On 5/23/2017 12:07 AM, Wes Stewart wrote: > PLEASE ignore all of Jim's pontification. > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
