SteppIR 80m Dipole, Инструкция по эксплуатации

Страница: 12 / 16

Dipole Installation
Attach antenna housing to a 1-3/4” mast (not included) using the 1-3/4” U-bolts and saddles.

Dipole SWR Considerations
The impedance of a half wave horizontal dipole depends on it’s height above ground. In the frequency
range of 14 to 28 MHz, the typical height of an amateur radio antenna is between 1/2 and 1 wavelength
above ground. At these heights the impedance of a horizontal 1/2 wave dipole is in the vicinity of 70
to 80 ohms. When the antenna is mounted at heights greater than 1/2 wavelength, it should exhibit an
SWR of less than 1.5 to one. At lower heights, the SWR may be higher.
