[Antennas] feeding a long wire

Wed Oct 18 18:38:25 EDT 2006

The key here is to use 1/4 wave multiples of a tuned feeder. One leg is left open at the top of the antenna.The other end is connected to the antenna coupler at the shack end. this will be a single band antenna in this configuration. I would just run a single wire to the nearest feed thru point of the shack and place the tuner there but then again I'm kinda lazy too.

Hello,
How does one treat the 'ground' side of open wire line when feeding an end 
fed long wire?
