There are many guides on the Internet, but this one is really simple and easy to understand and done in sort of a cartoon format. If you can get past the elementary type drawings the information provided is very helpful for both full sized components as well as SMD (Surface Mounted Devices).

  • @ Geoexplorer69:
    Coax question. I just put up a new Sirio monsoon base antenna with 100’ of rg8u coax testing with myMFJ antenna analyzer shows 1.4 swr at 26.965mhz and a 1.1 at 27.405 mhz . When I checked the ohms it’s steady a 30 ohms across the entire bandwidth.
  • @ Geoexplorer69:
    Is 30 ohms worth worrying about in a 100’ run of rg8u ?
