If you have n noise antennas, you can null (n-1) signals with the technique, but I guess you have to roll your own to do that. 73 Peter G3RZP -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/topband.html Sub

Earl (K6SE) describes the original inverted V antenna of the 1930's, although somewhat lower than the original. Strangely enough, I was reading one of my history books this am, and saw it there......

Carl, I'm ashamed of you!! Surely, you know by now that all us old fashioned guys who actually want to measure things are totally out of date, and the only thing that matters is simulation results -

Adding to K1ZM's comments, on 40 m, my sloping dipoles often receive VK better than my horizontal full wave dipole by about 1 S point, while VK receives 1 S point better when the dipole is used on tx

I haven't operated on 40 much in the US, but out in California (nr Santa Cruz), both the noise floor and mid evening QRM level made it sound like a dead band compared with Eu. Even up in NH, it was s

looked for VK3AJJ from 1815 UTC........no joy. Very little around - a TK5, a G, a GM and an SM, and LOTS of static. Guess the early morning might be better, but also figure that VK3AJJ might have a b

A fourth one that I've found is current on the outside of the coax. Which doesn't make much sense, but probably because at low levels the detectors in the SWR meter are running in the square law regi

Greg asks: History says an antenna must be resonant. I've never seen a reason for it either, but there are experts around who claim that if an 80m dipole is more than 10KHz off resonance, it won't wo

I don't agree - at least if we mean 'SWR in a 50 ohm system', AND if we define resonance as 'presenting a feed impedance which is purely resisitive'. Lowest SWR is achieved where the feed impedance i
