Has it occurred to anyone that maybe, just maybe, he didn't KNOW ladder line is not used on higher frequencies? I've seen arguments on various lists where nobody specified they were talking about HF and not higher frequencies. If I had seen the original post in time I would have just given a gentle answer that no, ladder line is not appropriate for VHF/UHF. Instead he was treated like a child bothering people with stupid questions.
