Wow, this is taking me back to school days! Can't remember the specifics, but antenna length DOES matter. And it has to be full-wave, half-wave, quarter-wave, and so on. This is for optimum receiving potential.
For transmitters, the proper length is imperative! The wrong length messes up the SWR (standing wave ratio) and the power that's supposed to go to the antenna gets dumped back in the circuits. Ever mess with an old CB and SWR meter? |
