RW> to making it ELECTRICAL multiples of a half wave on the test freq of
RW> choice. Just like cutting a dipole to length but then you have to
RW> multiply by the velocity factor of the coax you are using. My 8214
RW> Belden (foam dielectric), for example has a velocity factor of 0.66.
RW> Ordinary RG-8U is 0.80 as I remember. This makes the input and
output
Belden 8214 velocity factor is about 78%, regular RG-8/U non-foam , like
the 213/U is 66%.
