Here's measured data for Harbor Industries RG400.

k9yc.com/RG400DataMF-HF.png

Data was obtained by S11 sweeps (1-30 MHz) using VNWA, exporting as S1P files to AC6LA's Zplots spreadsheet for Excel. ZPlots does the math to compute and plot Zo, VF, and attenuation vs frequency, and finds the constants K0, K1, and K2 in the Johnson transmission line model. The lower plot is computed from the raw data, the top two plots come from the model. Zo (nom) and VF (nom) are the values to which the curves are asymptotic at VHF.

These curve shapes are predicted by the wave equations and are typical of virtually all transmission lines.

73, Jim K9YC
