Hello TT guys & gals I have a modest city lot approx 80' wide with about 50' + usable back yard. I have small 40' tower with a 11m 4el yagi at 48'. I recently picked up a 160m dipole with a 1:1 pro b

My lot is a little bigger then yours Jerry, but I have ran into the same situation. I would cut for 80m, and you say you have 80ft to work with. You can bend the ends and try to keep them at right an

Well, Speaking of the safety aspect, i used a 1.5" PVC pipe. I put a coupler at the top, so that it is narrow. I run the end thru it. At the bottom of the PVC, i drill a hole sideways and run a rope

On small lots, I have to differ here and suggest going with a vertical with a decent radial system. Even if the radials have to be short, and/or go off in various directions, the angle of radiation w

Right, it depends on what you are looking for. If you are looking for DX on 80m, a vertical is the way to go. If you are talking reigonal, then the dipole/inv vee is the way to go. Mike - K9MI with a

The closer the ends are to the ground, the higher the ground loss. You would be better off using the tower as a vertical. Do you have a beam on top? See my article on Elevated GP Antennas in JUNE 199

Jerry: I would put up a G5RV rather than a 80 meter dipole. The G5RV is only 100 feet long and can be used on most of the HF bands in addition to 80 meters. You can mount the center on your tower and

The advice that I have been given (but have not acted thereon) is to bend the ends so that the birds see a "Z" for the antenna. The main part up as high as possible and the braodside thereof to the d

Jerry, When I was in my condo with a 25' wide attic I made a 40 meter dipole in the following manner: 1. Two 12' pieces of copper pipe (well actually each 12' piece was a 10' piece and 2' but you get
