<<<THIS is why antennas fed by open wire line tend to be noisier than those
fed with coax. It isn't the line, it's the fact that you can't effectively
choke it. >>>

Hmmm, when I switch between my coax fed gap titan vertical and my 600
ohm ladder line fed horizontal loop, the noise level is 5 S units
higher on the gap vertical.
