Good morning all! I am in the process of building a "new" 160 station. The object is: 128' base insulated tower (located, I think) 1 kW Bauer 707 TX 7/8" rigid transmission line What I need is guidan

K8GG replies: If you are base or series feeding 128 ft of 45G tower, the approximate impedance is 37 ohms over a good radial system. One suggestion: With 75 ohm hard line one can use a 2:1 UnUn to dr

And depending on how long the line is, quite small losses in RG8 on 160M. 37 ohms is quite close to 50 ohms, there will be at least a few ohms of resistance in the radials, so additional losses due t

I use a homebuilt T-network in the shack and feed the vertical directly with big CATV hardline. I cannot imagine that the added complexity of remoting the tuner to the tower base would be worth the

When you have a low impedance antenna (in this case ~35 ohms) going to a higher impedance feed line (either 50 or 75 ohms), I would use a hairpin coil across the feed point rather than a tuner at the
