[Heathkit] Cantenna

[kwylow zinjanthropus]

It has to be 50 ohms (as read from a VOM).  FYI, after pumping so many watts into my Cantenna (I have had two in the past), I discovered they would go open because that top strap would tend to loosen and sometimes send the resistor to the bottom. This is perhaps due to the years of heating and cooling due to testing amps and transceivers from the 100w to 1kw range. FWIW. Cal, n6KYR.   >>>>>>Most everyone on the list must have responded to this. Most say it =
should read 50 ohms or so. Some suggested taking the cantenna apart and 
=
checking all the connections.
