It took a sting of posts this morning for the 'light' to come on - my QST
has not arrived yet.
My very first April QST was back in the early 60s. There was an article
about tapering a single wire feedline to concentrate the power going to the
antenna, full of formulas to derive the proper lengths and diameters. After
crunching the numbers with my trusty sliderule, I took it in to my math
teacher. We worked on it together, she concluded there was an error in the
formula as the answer was always zero.
I then asked my elmer about it - he is still laughing.
Happy Spring to all!
