Does the length of an antenna feed affect the length of the antenna one should use?
Intuitively I'm thinking 'NO' since in some applications the user supplies (variable length) antenna feed cables, but the antenna is still made to be resonant to the application frequency.
BUT in the RF design package I use, the "electrical length" of feeds seem important, and is
always calculated.
I'm just looking to be a little more sure about this before I push the button and produce 100 PCB's.
