Gentlemen, I have been lurking in the background for over a year there have been some excellent learning possibilities. Thank you all. now on to my question.
I have a 1/4 wave vertical (about 66 feet) for 75-80 meters I would like to try and make it resonate on 1.825. If I put the analyzer on it I don't understand the reading.....I know the swr is bad on 160 because the kpa-1500 will not match it. If possible I would like to add a coil at the bottom with a relay to switch in and out. Any ideas length of wire, diameter, of coil, and size of wire, for 1500 watts I am not worried about receive only transmit.
