I used a noise bridge to cut all the RG-11 stacked yagi and phased verticals phasing lines as well as harmonic stubs here when running a 2 station single op contest, before SO2R.

Using the station receiver also works well as the backround noise null is easily heard. I did that several times when a 9V battery was dead and compared results later, they were right on.

I have a question about using the noise bridge. I have used it cut stubs to 1/4 wavelength using 52 ohm cable with no problems. I now need some stubs using 75 ohm cable which I have on hand.

Will the same procedure work for 75 ohm that works for 52 ohm cable, or will the different impedance need to be accounted for. I started to cut cable and this question came to me. My first thought is that it will work fine, but I am not sure. I did some searches on the web but found nothing about it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Pat Armstrong KF5YZ
