- I'm thinking about constructing some open wire transmission line, probably 70-80 feet in length. Probably #10AWG or #8AWG soft drawn copper. L. B. Cebik's web site http://www.cebik.com/gup/gup31.html

- I would suggest approximately 6 inches or so. I guess a lot depends on the mechanical tension in the wires. You might be able to get away with greater spacing.... Strips will offer more resistance to

- into into strips to space the For many many years I've cut Lexan strips ~1/4 inch wide as open wire line spacers. You can run into problems if the load impedance is very high at high power. On humid
