Oh now i see what you were saying. it was the capitol VS that confused me. no i was talking about 1/2 waves not 5/8 or 1/4 or 1/16 or 93/467ths. i was talking about electrical half wave multiples of coax. i dont know where you got the 1/4 wave from. an odd multiple of a 1/4 wave acts as a impedence matching transformer. that much i know
and just so people dont go off on the 18 foot thing again its 18 feet times the velocity factor for an electrical 1/2 wave not 18 feet of coax and its 18 feet times the vf for cb not ham, not 10m or 20m or 160m but cb like this topic is about
edit- ok i went back and read your post about the 1/4 wave thing. i dont remember reading anything about 1/4 waves before so i guess i missed it. my bad.
i was olny talking to mark aboyut 1/2 waves like the rest of my posts and didn't see your 1/4 wave question. sorry:blushing:
this flu is kicking my ass. my excuse:blush:
