Hi Herb, When I was in Durban as ZS5K, I was in a similar situation in that I could only run a Bev in one direction away from the shack. What I did was to put a small relay at each end which switched

Scott, I use the 8-ele array, and there is absolutely no coupling to the unfed elements. This is because they are VERY short at least in my case (10ft) and nowhere near resonance. In my case they are

Tonight at SS I experienced what was probably the best long path opening to G since moving to ZL. I put 4 G's in the log, including G3ZES in Essex. This was a genuine long path opening, not skewed sh

Hi Bill, I phased two Pennants as ZS5K in Durban. Seemed to work very well, although my spacing was less than optimum. If you phase broadside, optimum spacing is just over 300 ft, fed in phase, of co

I would not think that it would be unsafe Javier. The safe field strength at 2 MHz is 60 V/m. You could put the antenna up, measure the field strength using a lower power, then make your conclusion
