🔍 Key Concepts

• How an SSB (single sideband) tuner matches the antenna to the radio • The difference between high-voltage antenna lead and standard coaxial cable (like RG-8U/RG-213) • Why an insulated backstay behaves like a long-wire antenna

💭 Think About

• Is the wire between the tuner and the backstay carrying RF at high voltage or is it a low-loss RF transmission line like coax? • Which of these choices are coaxial cables normally used between the radio and tuner, and which is typically used between tuner and antenna? • Would you ever normally use a two-conductor pair from tuner to a single backstay antenna? Why or why not?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are coaxial cables versus high-voltage antenna cable or simple DC wire • Think about where in an SSB system coax is used: radio → tuner or tuner → antenna? • Consider which cable type is specifically designed to handle high RF voltage at the tuner–antenna connection point
