Is this Sigma4 in question about 27' or more like 31' feet tall?

The LW-150 I played with for a while was only about 3/4 wave long. I wasn't impressed against the Penetrator but perhaps there's more going on with the longer version...?

And Toll_Free you're right, of course, about "electrical length", otherwise how could coax have a velocity factor which needs to be taken into account if you are, say, making a 1/4 wave matching transformer from it?
