Why bury? I used to bury, but gave up and now use aluminum fence staples (a 6 inch wire with a hook at one end available from hardware stores selling chain link fence supplies). I 'staple' about ever

Any ideas on how to estimate the gain of homemade parallel coaxial inverted Ls (80M pair and a 40M pair) spaced 1/4 wave and also the gain for a single coaxial inverted L on 160M? Thanks and 73 Bruce

I have been using the MFJ 259 analyzer for several years. Aside from having to to resolder the SO239, it has works flawlessly. I use it most every day to set the antenna tuner plus setting up or chec

Author: wa3afs@soli.inav.net (Bruce Goldstein)

I would recommend that the verticals be placed 1/4 wave apart. I run a pair of 80m and a pair of 40m verticals and each is 1/4 wave apart. I use a 1/4 wave (I think-it has been many years) between th
