What is the approximate length for a 1/2 wave dipole antenna cut for 14.250 MHz?
D
Answer
Antennas and feed lines
Type
A
8 feet
B
16 feet
C
24 feet
D
33 feet
Answer Notes
The standard formula for calculating the approximate length of a half-wave dipole antenna in feet is 468 divided by the frequency in MHz.
By dividing 468 by 14.250 MHz, you get approximately 32.84 feet.
Rounding this result gives 33 feet, making it the correct answer. The other options are incorrect lengths for this specific frequency and antenna type.
