The crux of our constitutional right to pursue happiness is best summed up in the idea that one mans fist can extend as far as another man's nose. The problem with towers is that everyone has a diffe

Seems to me that the question of erecting towers is really a property rights issue. Not really sure though how private property is protected under the U.S. Constitution. With a few noteable exception

I was thinking of giving the MFJ 1025/1026 noise cancellor a try to see how it compares to my badly wounded JPS ANC-4. Are there any differences between the MFJ-1025 and the MFJ-1026 aside from the t

Hey Tom, I don't think it is absolutely true that line loss is the only mechanism that can increase system bandwidth. If the reactance change of the mismatched line happens to work in opposition the

Hi Wes, What you say is true if the characteristic impedance of the line is equal to the system reference impedance (Zo). In other words, if your are changing the length of a 50 ohm feedline in a 50

Hey Tom, See my comments below: Yes, but only if you are measuring VSWR referenced against 75 ohms. If your are in a 50 ohm system, then the VSWR measured (relative to 50 ohms) will change as a funct

Great question, Chris! Wish I had the answer. In the past when I have posed questions related to torsional limits of tower sections, they seem to have fallen on deaf ears. Most of the familar design

Bill, I don't think it matters much, but just to be safe you can make the 50 ohm pieces an integer mutiple of 1/2 wavelength at the operating frequency. This will ensure that the there is no impedanc
