- Does anyone have any experience with a multiband antenna known as the "Carolina Windom"? Trying to decide between basic dipole, G5RV, or the Windom as the next antenna here. Thanks, Bill WA1DXA -- FA

- I've been using one for the past 3 years it's up about 35 feet in a sort of inverted V to get around the trees in the back yard. It seems to work OK on most bands and the auto tuner in the Icom 746 d

- Bill: The "Carolina Windom" is an Off Center Fed dipole rather than a true Windom as both are described in the ARRL Antenna Book. By feeding off center, a reasonably low SWR in the range of 2 to 4 ca

- Thor, good points, but I have been led to believe the Carolina Windom also has a vertical-radiation element as well, is this not correct? thanks! 73.......k6sdw To: <towertalk@contesting.com> _______

- Ed: Yes, there is radiation off the coax feeding the antenna if a balun is not used at the feed point because the off center drive point creates an unbalanced load unlike a center fed dipole. Notwith

- Anyone using ANY type of multi-band wire antenna should model the antenna on EACH band to see what directions the resulting patterns cover. The popular ladderline fed 80M dipole has the following con
