Hi group.
I am working on some db224a folded dipole elements. I have cut them and have
added smaller tubing inside in order to make them longer for proper resonance
on 2m. I have measured several factory dipoles and have noticed that the length
from the bend of the loop to the support tube on the feed side is shorter than
the closed/non-feed side. Why is this? Is there a ratio I need to know about?
As soon as I get the proper lengths figured out, I am going to weld everything
in place.
Thanks es 73m
