- I would like to know what the impedance of a triangular dipole is. My
- son and I are building a UHF TV antenna. We are using a corner reflector
- type of design. The triangular dipole is made out of sheet metal and looks
- like a bowtie that is 14.5 inches long, with an included angle of 40 deg.
- Also we would like to know how to attach a 75 ohm coax cable to a regular
- dipole of 72 ohms. Do you just strip back the insulation and attach each
- conductor to each half of the dipole or is there some type of ready made
- connection device? Thanks in advance!
