Switched on my radio at around 5.30 pm and I could see the 20m band booming with activity. Few stations from North India were coming in very strong.

Apart from these discussions of my past use of 75 ohms cable and descriptions read online, I have used 75 ohms cable for matching delta loop antenna recently.

I have been trying to optimise my 80/20m loaded coil inverted V dipole antenna for quite some time. Finally I have achieved an SWR of 1.2 on 14200

Have a look at this propagation on Reverse Beacon Network. My CQ call in CW has been picked up by reverse beacon network at a distance of 3263

I had been wondering about how to add extra length of wire for tuning the 20m segment of my 80/20m loaded coil inverted V dipole antenna for tuning.

I had elevated my 80/20m loaded coil inverted V dipole antenna by about 1m, to a final height of about 7m from the ground, to see if the

I had a 40/10m fan dipole with unconventional cone like mounting and I wanted to add elements for 20m. Brought down the existing antenna and unscrewed the 2.5

Just for a curiosity, I thought of checking the capacitance of my antennas with feedline. First I checked the 40/20/10m fan dipole. That antenna has been mounted as

Well, I had not heard of a Loop Yagi till today morning, when I saw a picture on X, posted by N2MAK. That was in preparation for January

This is my new multi-band fan dipole antenna with elements for 40, 20 and 10m, which will also work on 15m. Hence you can call it as a
