Re: [WISPA] Antenna Loads

[Jack Unger]

Jeremy forgot to add: 1. Solder the LMR center conductor to the top of a 6-in long banana. 2. Solder the LMR braid to the top of an 8-in long banana. 3. Submerge both bananas in a two-gallon plastic pail of dill pickle juice. 4. Once in the pail be sure that the bananas are NOT touching each other or else the transmitter can short out.

Or is there a better answer? Strip some LMR back about 3/4", and fan out the braid. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
