I checked out the link. Cool easy antenna. If I've offended anyone I'm sorry. I guess I am out of line. Marconi your post was well written and made me think.

I,m over it. I don't stay upset too long. I went out in the backyard and built an 80 meter dipole. Nothing like doing what you love. You have to understand. I get fixated on the hobby and I am still relatively a newbie. I have come along way. I just don't like the intellectual smuggness that...

Wow I was gone awhile and imagine my surprise to see the direction this thread has taken. Not only are most of you mistaken but I didn't expect to see the thread turned into one that made it sound like I was a dumbass who couldnt read and was too lazy to learn the physics of antenna building. I...

I was looking at my tower when I got a crazy notion. Why couldnt I extend the elements on my Maco 5 element beam and make it into a 20 meter beam? I was thinking if I could add the missing length with a one piece aluminum tube in the middle of each element. Could that be possible. I mean I...

Talked to Motormouth from California last night on ch. 6 AM. I also talked to Medicine Man in the Mag. Motormouth has an interesting website where he demonstrates his method for 150% modulation without negative clipping. http://www.motormouthmaul.com

I want to build a 20 meter 3 element yagi modeled for gain.

site Nice site!! Too Bad you have to be a member to get the 3 element yagi plans for 14 mhz. Anybody a member of the ARRL?

I guess I am going to just have to build or buy a three element beam of my own. Sometimes deals are just too good to be true. I really don't need a triband beam. I would be happy with a 20 meter 3 element monoband Yagi. Anybody know of some plans for a yagi? I would like to shorten the elements.

Well this sucks. A man i know gave me a 3 element hf beam and a HF vertical and I found out that someone came in a boom truck and said they were me and stole the antennas right out from under my nose. I'm really pissed. Last year I was given an eighty ft tower with three rotators on it and the...

I wish we had trees that tall in New Mexico. All I have is 60 ft powerlines surrounding my house.

What do you mean HUH? His antenna is for 40 meters mine is for 20 meters. I originally started with a wire antenna and then decided to build a aluminum dipole. I fed mine with a 1:1 balun. It worked better than just the inverted v wire dipole. I like the fact that I can rotate it around and...

This guy just gave me some HF antennas. They are mounted on a telephone pole about 60ft up. All i have to do is is remove the pole and antennas. It looks like some sort of two element beam and an HF vetical that has fallen over. I'll try to post some pics of the antennas. Maybe someone could...

I use the same design only mine is a 20 meter rotatable dipole. Works good!!

nice!!

I noticed it says technician under my name. How can i get it changed to General?

never mind i figured it out.

Does the guy that makes these antennas have a website? It looks like a good project

How can I hook an SBE desk mic from a sbe console 2 to a Yaesu 101b?

The Mystery antenna looks like it could work here at my house. I wonder how it compares to a Carolina Windom? I do favor 20 meters also so the Mystery antenna might be for me.

wow again lots to learn about antennas. Does every antenna have to be a half or full wave? how about a quarter wave 80 meter beam? I have an LDG 1000 tuner. I wanted something better than a wire.
