I have an old wood house on a SMALL lot (1/10th acre) by the sea. To
keep the area looking "old" I am willing to put up an old three parallel
wire 1920s style aerial. My questions are: Is it one wire run back and
forth? Multiple wires? Will it operate several bands? (end to end it
will have slightly over 35' so I guess my lowest band will be 40m) How
and where do I feed it? I can use single wire, ladder line, or co-ax
only if necessary. I have a tuner which can use any of the three. Any
counterpoise? And probably what should be the first question: will it
work reasonably? Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
73,
John KB4CRT
