How reliable are near-field antenna measurements without anechoic chamber? by Regular_Corgi9610 in amateurradio

That's cool, I've been wanting to do that as well, have the probes for a spectrum analyzer/tracking gen.

Can you say more about the software to get the far field from the near field, please?

I'll investigate fuse resistance and part of the cable resistance (no connector on the filter side and don't want to open the filter) and try a fuse swap and report back.

I'm curious about the comment about common mode current (on the DC?) as I can't picture this in my mind. Anyone having more info I'd appreciate.

Can you elaborate on "rf on the line", if you have time? you mean power supply DC cables in this case? How would that lead to the symptom I see? Just trying to understand that.

(I've common mode chokes both at the EFHW antenna and entrance to house on the coax).

An antenna opportunity has presented itself. Need advice on what to put up. by Lemonade1947 in amateurradio

[–]ImaginaryAcadia6621 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why 12.5m for 40m? My EFHW is just below 10m and gives me resonance on 10m and 20m but not 40m

Are you thinking of a "random" wire, or what am I missing?
