The W8JK antenna design


Invented by Dr. John D. Kraus, W8JK, in 1937, it uses two dipoles, both driven and out of phase with each other, to create a directional antenna no front to back ratio, though that works on six bands 20-17-15-12-10-6 meters and as a top loaded vertical on 40 meters

A coaxial-cable trap dipole antenna installed in the attic provides a surprisingly effective solution to HF

Antenna dipolo
Il dipolo aperto e' l'antenna piu' semplice, la piu' economica, la piu' facile da costruire

50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135 Preamps for 144 and 430 MHz, for 50 MHz, the BFG135a is a cheap transistor and in my view rather strong. It is not easily damaged by static discharge or RF power. FG connection
