that isn't a dummy load. . that is a full fledged antenna. . .

The 50 ohm is used to insure a impedance match to the transmitter. you can do the same thing with very large loops. . .. measuring the resistance of the wire per 100 feet, and building an antenna that is long enough to equate to 50 ohms. . . . No tuner needed. . . --------------------------------------------

I'm slightly confused about some details. My interpretation is that one end of the zip cord is soldered together so that the total length of the radiator is 40 ft. One end is then connected to the BNC ground and the other to the resistive load. Is this interpretation correct? Thanks for your help. Chas -- Check out the 4SQRP website at 4sqrp.com
