Hi TT'ers A ham buddy of mine was on vacation and while coming through Santa Rosa, CA, he spotted a 3 element 80 meter beam on a tower. It has a 20 meter on top, 90 degrees off from the 80. It looks

I am putting a 80 meter 2 element inverted vee beam up. It will be at 120 feet with 39 foot boom. I have 2 questions dealing with switching from phone to cw without lowering elements and using jumper

I think you need to model what you are attempting. You don't mention the antenna support and if it is a tower then there is a fair amount of interaction with the V. However, a 39' boom will help if t

Heres a thought: if one can use a fan dipole to make an inverted vee cover both 80 and 75, how about a fan reflector? 73, kelly, ve4xt _______________________________________________ ________________

Hi Martin, In the late 70s and early 80s, Gene KR2N (ex-WB2FZO) had 2 Inverted Vs on 80 meters fed with RG-213 on a ~ 42 boom up at 120. He fed them with a T connector to which I believe was one 1/4

It would be a bit tricky.. in a Yagi you rely on the resonances of the elements to couple energy between them with the correct magnitude and phase so that it "forms a beam" in the right direction. I

I have a 2-element 80 meter wire beam, with inverted-vee elements. The boom length is 34 feet. The first thing to be aware of is the very narrow bandwidth. About 60 kHz between 2:1 SWR points, and th

About 30 years ago I built a 3el 75/80m vagi on a 70ft 45G boom. It was installed on a 190ft 65G clone tower. Yes, it was heavy, over 1000 pounds. All three elements were 150 ft long, highly tapered,

Thanks for the advice. Looks like best way to achieve the results will be to feed them both instead of parasitic array. Hopefully have boom up tommorow then start playing. 73, Martin N4UU ___________

They're not parallel, roughly 20 degrees difference in azimuth, and they are rather widely spaced. At one point I did the trig to figure it out, but don't remember. Looking at the the View Antenna sc
