Antenna Trap
I opened the traps and found the two driven element traps broken and the 10m coils blackened

Low Cost Antenna Traps
Let's work through the design of a simple-to-construct low-cost antenna trap
La Trampa Balun
The choke balun has represented a more effective solution, from the electrical point of view, for monoband antennas
Multiband vertical
10 meters of vertical that makes for a handy 1/4 wave for 40m, 30m, 20m, 17m
RF Inductance Calculator
Mean diameter of the air core coil, measured from conductor centre to conductor centre include the wire insulation thickness, if any
Repairing Unadilla W2VS 40m Antenna Traps
The Unadilla trap is constructed with two concentric lengths of aluminum tubing separated by an insulating layer, thereby forming the parallel capacitor

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 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 An SWR meter provides information about how well matched is your antenna with the transmitter and how well power is being radiated
