1. [TowerTalk] Discone Antenna (score: 1): Author: "Bill Aycock" <billaycock@centurytel.net>; Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2009 20:54:55 -0500; Senior moment, 82yr version. A few years ago, I bought a discone antenna from an ad in either World Radio, QST or CQ.

Hopefully, you can track down a manual, but if not... maybe we can figure it out from the basic design, and its measurements, etc., much the way; /archives//html/Towertalk/2009-03/msg00605.html (8,141 bytes)

FAR AWAY from the radio shack model, or any with HOLLOW elements. You want solid rod, stainless steel. Also most of the TRAM stuff; /archives//html/Towertalk/2009-03/msg00606.html (9,485 bytes)

They are now part of RF Parts. You can get some info at: http://rfparts.com/diamond/ They still show the two models of the Diskcone in the catalog.

I purchased a RS discone, with hollow elem; /archives//html/Towertalk/2009-03/msg00609.html (8,078 bytes)

What on earth is in there that would limit the power other than spacing between the top and skirt beside the coax; /archives//html/Towertalk/2009-03/msg00611.html (7,997 bytes)

I STAND CORRECTED..the one I mentioned a short while ago was not the Icom but the DIAMOND discone. A senior moment here to be sure...but it has lasted 15 years and still; /archives//html/Towertalk/2009-03/msg00612.html (10,625 bytes)

However, the ones that use a stinger on top usually have a base loading coil built into it to match the impedan; /archives//html/Towertalk/2009-03/msg00623.html (10,163 bytes)
