I want to use my Elecraft BL-1 1:1 balun on field day.
The balun would serve as center insulator, but the coax line plugged into it is a phasing line.
Here is my question: Will the windings on the balun, introduced between the antenna and the phasing line, effectively increase the length of the phasing line?
I think it will, and I am wondering by how much to shorten my phasing line to account for it. I think the windings are six to seven inches in length and would imagine the velocity factor to be high.
