Greetings all When I last left you- I was trying to figure out some tuning issues with my recently completed four square for 80 meters. As a reminder, I was using ground mounted shortened verticals,
TO N1RJ Roger, Thx for the suggestions to try 50 ohm feedlines vs. the 75 ohm feedlines I am using now.....I thought it was a good question, and a point I missed in earlier postings- so I'm posting t
I was told that putting a 2,000,000 Ohm 2 watt risistor at the bases of my ground mounted 80 meter verticals to ground will do well to bleed to off the static build up from wind and T-Strms........so

want to hang a 1/4 sloper from tower towards EU for 40 meters- has anyone ever tested this against a 1/2 wave dipole or Inv Vee?? did it play well or was it a "L"oser in comparison- or about the same
Greetings- Another rookie question..... I have a 160 mtr Inv L that I have ran up 55 feet supported off the side of my tower using 4 foot stand offs ....the top of the 60 foot tower supports a 6 ele
In reply for a Tennadyne T-6 Log Periodic opinion.......I've used mine now for almost three years- For an antenna on a 14 foot boom- it is amazing- I tested it for months against a TH3JR tribander an
Greetings All I have recently constructed a 4 square for 80 meters. It has performed wonderfully so I thought I would share some notes about itFirst, a disclaimer- I'm not an engineer- my data is fro
Wow, Got a lot of feedback with some questions that I can answer to fill in a few gaps of my earlier posting- seems like I left a lot of details out First, the top hat wires are at a 45 degree angle
Thinking of putting up a 80M attic loop. Just want to cover the DX windows from 3.500-3.800MHz. Can anyone suggest a design?......I plan on running my Alpha 99 with it- Curious as to what the 2:1 ban
Rick, As an avid builder of past 80M four squares, I often had the chance to compare mine with two operators along my grayline with 80M Yagi's. I agree with your conclusions 98% with the exception of
I ran about 500 feet of Bury Flex out to my 40 meter dipole array and found it to only have about a 35% loss going into the 4 SQR coupler- It's not hardline, but for the moeny, I was very pleased wit
Since you mentioned your antenna, maybe this is a blank check for a towertalk subject- Can you explain more details about the antenna set up and feedlines etc???????? First, check everything at the s
