I have a full size 3 element, 20 metre yagi, which I inherited from a silent Key for the effort of taking it down, along with a windmill tower and very heavy radar rotor. If I were to put it up somep
It is important to remember that it is not really triband wires, but tribander SINGLE ELEMENT. I think (my opinion) that it was a huge mistake to nickname it TB Wires because a lot of efficient anten
Not if you used it. Not any more than using a Cushcraft MA5B would. No. It's not Tribander-Wires, it is Tribander and Single Element Antennas. If you actually had a Rhombic to use on 40, 80 and 160m,
Thanks Ryan: Your information is well worthwhile. I'm still not sure whether my preferred, most simple, construction project would qualify. That would be one antenna, a full wave 80 metre loop, proba
Yes. It would. The antenna has one element (heck, it has one wire), and you are foregoing the tribander entirely. TS with no T. The rules say nothing about the gain of the antenna. Only the number of
I'm not sure about the rules regarding a loop antenna but I have a full-wave vertical loop I've been using on 40 meters for years. My friend Steve K9AN put up one for 80 meters once. He has a bigger
