Hi All!
I'm looking at building a NVIS antenna for the upper end of 80m. Using
the calculator here supposes 450 ohm ladder line. I have none of that,
but I do have a bunch of the black twinlead variety.
Would someone here be able to point me to a place where I can determine,
or just tell me, what length of 300 ohm twinlead I'd need to use as a
substitute? I'd be running 100W max so I don't *think* that would be an
issue, but feel free to tell me otherwise.
