Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Dipole length vs diameter -- a theory question
The ARRL Handbook, 1963 10th addition page 364, under the section
"Half-Wave Dipoles shows a graph for finding "k" which is the ratio of
length of antenna conductor to diameter of the conductor. The graph also
shows the effect of conductor diameter to feed point impedance at
resonance. I'm sure thus does not answer your question regarding the
length of a 6 meter halo but may be helpful to others. The pages starting
at page 34 makes very interesting reading and may be thought of as "old
school" but the basics don't change. Good luck with your project. Ron
