Woo-doo (sic?) electronics
1. antenna tuner tunes the antenna
2. more radials on vertical (1/4 wavelength) antenna is better
3. end fed antenna needs counterpoise
4. no need for balum on coax fed dipole
5. to calculate length of dipole use 456 cubits / 7 cubits
6. SWR 1:1 is mandatory
7. avoid length of feed line in multiples of frequency of operation
8. SWR != 1:1 cause losses on feed line
