I put a shorted 1/4 wave stub — about a foot long on 144 MHz — on the coax to
my 2m beam. The beam is right under my HF antenna, and thanks to the stub I can
run 1.3 kW on 40-10m with absolutely no interference to the 2m rig, and no
effect on 2m SWR. Before I had the stub, hitting the key on
Hi Mark,
Whoever you talked to needs to go back to school and study Maxwell's
equations. He is WRONG!

I would not be buying any cable from them.

This link says yes:

Other's say no...
My "gut" says yes.
Yea! Now I have something to research in order to figure out how/why!
My favorite kind of
A typical, Type RG-58A Vf measurement, as a function of frequency, is

Vf is frequency dependent.

This was the response:
The Vp is not measured at any frequency and is independent of frequency. The
only variable in play is the dielectric constant. The Vp represents the speed

When dealing with a length of transmission line, the use of the '468'
factor should not be used - compute the actual wavelength and then apply
the velocity factor.
There is yet another variable -- VF varies with frequency. At low
frequencies, it is
