Hi! With a head full of browsing and researching I decided to ask for help this Topband think tank. At S53M contest station we are well organized for 40m & up but are lacking lower band TX antennas.

Simon, how about shunt feed 25m tower (by photo it seems there is enough space for radial field under it. And, how about two or three sloping dipoles for 80 from 50m tower? Either two in 310° and 45°

Hi Simon,I would like to suggest hanging a 1 wavelength delta loop off of the 50 meter tower. Easy to build, easy to match, about 1.5 db gain and you don't need to do all that work laying down radial

Mike, you suggested a delta loop. It is important that if Simon decides to hang a delta loop between towers that you feed it a the corner rather than at the bottom. This should give you some vertical

At S53M contest station we are well organized for 40m & up but are lacking lower band TX antennas. I suggest 2 element vertical arrays phased for a cardioid pattern such that the nearest tower is di

If your tower isn't high enough to get a high impedance looking down the tower to ground on 160 meters - a possible solution is to make a trap using something like 20 feet of tower and a variable cap

Here is the result of your feedback to my call for ideas. Thanks to everybody who responded. Many ideas were to use a vertical type of antenna, but somehow I was trying to avoid the radials as the gr
