Re: [TenTec] ant

["Dr. Gerald N. Johnson" <geraldj@weather.net>]

I used 300 ohm twinlead, 400 ohm 1' spaced 18 gauge copperweld, and Ma 
Bell shielded (bronze strap) direct burial twin wire. The antenna is 
very reactive on all bands so it takes a good tuner and that tuner will 
cover the range of impedances seen through any common balanced line.
