Ladder line is an older, simpler form of parallel-wire line, often called open wire line. The configuration looks like a rope ladder , hence the name. It can either be purchased already made by a cable company, or home-made ; the construction is easy, though tedious, and originally all radio amateurs made their own open wire line.
The J-pole antenna is an end-fed omnidirectional half-wave antenna that is matched to the feedline by a shorted quarter-wave parallel transmission line stub. [5] [1] [6] For a transmitting antenna to operate efficiently, absorbing all the power provided by its feedline, the antenna must be impedance matched to the line; it must have a resistance equal to the feedline's characteristic impedance.
The most widely used types of feed line are coaxial cable, twin-lead, ladder line, and at microwave frequencies, waveguide. Particularly with a transmitting antenna, the feed line is a critical component that must be adjusted to work correctly with the antenna and transmitter. Each type of transmission line has a specific characteristic impedance.
By voting Trump back into office, voters “soundly repudiated Biden’s radical open borders policies” that “made less Americans safe,” said Texas State Rep. Brian Harrison.
