[Antennas] RE: Loading a 90 foot wire on 160M w/added inductance

I agree with Jim (see his message below), but inductance added
at the *back* of the tuner, in series with the end-fed wire, will pro-
duce r.f. radiated *in* the shack. To reduce the chance of that 
happening, you should put the added inductance (which appears
to be nothing more than a "loading coil") *outside* the shack in
the feeder wire which feeds your 90-foot wire. Same effect:
It makes the antenna "look longer".

Hi Guys,
Another dirty trick is to add some inductance to your tuner. It can
be in the form of wire wound in a coil shape, and placed between the
tuner and the wire.
