Thanks George

Fortunately I worked N8S in April 2007 on 160 and 80 mts

Hope to have my antenna ready next weekend to listen them

GE All,

Listening on 17 SSB this evening I hear that the BCSpecial is up and ready
for use.  Good luck to those needing Swains Island on 160.

Topband: electrical wavelength

2012-09-09 Thread Bob Kupps
Hi it's still flooded here but I wanted to fire up one of my verticals by 
itself on 160 and feed it with a half wave of Comscope RG6 since I don't have 
enough 50 ohm line to reach it. I have a AIM 4170 to cut the line with but my 
question to the group is - how much variation from published nominal velocity 
factors have you encountered in practice when cutting lines to length? How 
accurate do we need to be for 1/4 wave lines?
