I am considering using slinky as an antenna in my attic. I would likely use
two � fed in the center by an automatic
antenna tuner. Overall length would be 30-40 feet.

I wonder if anyone has ever made a detailed analysis of a slinky that takes
into consideration the turns per foot and the overall length vs frequency?

Ideas are most welcome.
