Yup, thas rite! In or on a Windom, the idea is to find that spot where the antenna is resonant AND the feedline is attached to a piurely resistive point so that to SWR exists. This is the reason a properly made Windom has no feed line length restriction. The fact that it works as a resonant antenna with no feedline SWR is why we are still talking about it 75 years after Mr Windom worked out the formulas and a means of testing a multiband NO SWR antenna.. happy New Year! 73, Mike, K4XM ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, December 31, 2004 8:03 AM Subject: [AMRadio] Windom
