I remember an old article by L B Cebik . . .

Newest version, cites Cebik's (w4rnl, sk) work:

I just ran an old one I had in EZnec.
The 2:1 SWR bandwidth is about 280 Khz.

I remember an old article by L B Cebik that described a way you can
broadband an
80 meter antenna simply by using a couple specific lengths in series of 75
ohm and
50 ohm feedline. If you are interested I can try to dig it up and send you
a copy.

Hello all,
Hope it's oK to ask this on this forum.
Trying to figure out if it's worthwhile to make one delta loop that will
cover most of CW and lower part of SSB.
Does anyone have up a full wave delta loop for 75/80M?
If so, what are your 2:1 SWR band edges?
I was thinking if I cut it to resonate around 3.6 it might be wide enough
for both.
If not I'll just go with 2 separate antennas.

Thanks and 73,
Darrell AB2E
