Build an antenna for 40 and 80


The solution build an antenna for 40 and 80. The roof on the building is not that big that I could install a full size dipole or inverted V

An Attic Coaxial-Cable Trap Dipole for 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, and 80 Meters
A coaxial-cable trap dipole antenna installed in the attic provides a surprisingly effective solution to HF

Simple Building and Tuning of Traps
Traps are useful for multiband operating of all kinds of antennas

Coaxial Traps Grid-dip meter method
A trap is a parallel resonant circuit network that can perform either of two functions in an antenna system

Coil Design
The coil design is one of the most difficult and important parts of the coilgun

50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135

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
