The master backup plan came into action on a Vertical Bridge tower in Cedar Hill, Texas. Installers from Tower King raised a ...
A friend who recently passed away once gave me this sketch and now, I pass it on to you. It illustrates the capacitance that a vertical antenna will exhibit at its bottom feed point versus the ...
At the heart of the transmission of every radio signal is the antenna, and the simplest construct is the dipole. So basic is the dipole antenna that the half-wave version is in nearly all ...
[My Ham Radio Journey] wanted to see if a “common person” (in his words) could build an effective vertical ham radio antenna. If you look at the video below, the answer is apparently yes. He started ...
The real action in the world of ham radio is generally in the high frequency bands. Despite the name, these are relatively low-frequency bands by modern standards and the antenna sizes can get a ...
