[NLRS] ANDREWS HELIAX QUESTIONS

Hi Kris.   Can't help you directly, but here is one idea.   Do you have a 50 ohm dummy load and a SWR meter ?   You can make a "cheap" dummy load with a PL259 connector and a 1 watt 51 ohm carbon or metal film resistor or two 100 ohms in parallel, etc.   Don't use wire wound resistors.    Simply connect your dummy load on one end and your SWR meter on the other end and pump in a few watts of RF.   If the SWR is very close to 1:1, you have 50 ohm.   If its closer to 1.5 to 1, you have 75 ohm.
