Hello from Enthusiastic Steve, in this video I will show you the result of around 4 weeks of research and experimentation to achieve a vertical HF Multi-band antenna, for portable or home base use.
It does not require a separate tuner and for its size it has enhanced properties over base loaded designs. This is NOT a dummy load on a stick, it works and works well.
Just take a look at the WSPR reports and the 2 surprise stations I got a report back from.
This antenna I have optimised as best I can and I have shared a sketch with dimensions for you to also experiment with and build one for yourself, maybe a radio club project?
Comment and let me know how yours turns out.
Thank you for watching, as always please share, like and subscribe, take a look over my other radio related content (over 70 videos on my channel) if you enjoy radio, any part of the hobby then you should find a video to suit.
All the best from Enthusiastic Steve
