435MHz 12 turn Helix Antenna
This 50 ohm impedance antenna, when powered with 25-100W of RF in SSB, joins the Molniya orbiting satellites as AO-40 and AO-10

A Helix antenna for 2 metre satellite
The main boom is 25 mm. sq. galvanized steel tube with a 1.6 mm. wall thickness, and 5m. long. This is for a 10 turn helix, and allowing approx 400mm

A Home made Helical antenna for a GPS
In the practical construction of a half-turn quadrifilar helix it is especially important to respect the exact lengths of the helical wires

How to make a quadrifilar helix QFH antenna easily from inexpensive materials PVC plumbing pipe and RG-58U co-axial


Linear-loaded-short-dipole-21mhz

Linear loaded short dipole 21Mhz For my amateur radio activities on the HF bands I only have a 3.6 m wide balcony available for antennas. After some study I decided to experiment with a shortened dipole for the 15 m band

Rx antennas 4Square Rx Vertical Array

Rx antennas 4Square Rx Vertical Array My frequency design of 1.825 MHz a 90 degrees line would be 33,70 metersinstead of the previously calculated 33,27 m

A simple SWR Meter is to be used at HF

A simple SWR Meter is to be used at HF An SWR meter provides information about how well matched is your antenna with the transmitter and how well power is being radiated
