CM Dipole with coaxial feedline. CM CM This illustrates modeling of a coaxial cable by using a CM combination of a transmission line model (for the inside of CM the coax) and a wire (for the outside). CM The transmission line is about 1/2 physical wavelength long. CM After you run the program, use 'Currents->Magnitude' on the CM 'Geometry (F3)' window and use Page-up/down to magnify the CM current. Note the current on the feedline. CM If you change the power setting using 'Settings' on the CM 'Main (F2)' window, then click on the wire resembling the CM Coax, you can see how large the current is for a given power CM input. At 100 watts, the current is greater than 100 mA CM at the center of the feedline. This may or may not cause CM trouble with RFI if the feedline is close to a TV CM transmission line, phone line, etc. Note that the coax is CM fully symmetrical with respect to the antenna. For CM an explanation of what causes the current, see "Some CM Aspects of the Balun Problem", by Walter Maxwell, W2DU, CM QST, March 1983, or "Baluns: What They Do and How They Do CM It" in the ARRL Antenna Compendium, Vol. 1.
