I have questions! Is there any Slim Jim experience out there???

I have built an assortment of 2 meter antennas - dipole, 1/4 wave ground
plane, 3 element Yagi, J pole - they are all fabulous and work as expected.

My two Slim Jim’s have let me down. I built one with 1/2” copper pipe and
one from 450 Ohm ladder line. Both ended up with crazy SWR and impedance
that is all over the place.

I am using community accepted sites for calculators.

I have every expectation that I have fouled them both!!!

Thank you,
