    Antenna height

    I wonder how the pattern would look at 1/2 wavelength above ground to the feed point.

    When I get to the shop I will measure it and post them. I have my custom built sigma 4 up right now, so the astro plane is hanging up.

    I still have the one I custom built, if anyone needs measurements. Still works great

    Base HY-GAIN PENETRATOR vs Maco V58

    The Colossal's vertical element is 21.5 feet, this is not including the base tube and insulator height. The spec's are right on their website

    Zero-five antenna

    It is a parallel tuned network.

    Base New Vector 4K radiator at 0.75 - 0.82 - 0.875 wavelength.

    The center tube is 31 inches long and 1 inch outside diameter, the Teflon insulator tube is 6 inches long and 1 1/12 in OD and 1 inch ID. The outer aluminum tube is 1 5/8 OD and 1 1/2 ID

    One of the pictures posted was of the gamma. It is a variable slide capacitor set at 48pf. I can give you the measurements if you like.

    Thanks Bob Here are some more pictures. I used Teflon bar for the basket spreaders.

    Base New Vector 4K radiator at 0.75 - 0.82 - 0.875 wavelength.

    Finished and installed works great. Built a 20kw Teflon Capacitor for it. Built to sigma 4 spec's and added a 4th basket support. Vertical element is larger diameter tubing. Has offset radial hub.

    Want to replace my Gainmaster.

    My custom heavy duty Sigma 4/ Vector 4000 copy I built. Weighs 21lbs with a 20k teflon gamma match

    Base New Vector 4K radiator at 0.75 - 0.82 - 0.875 wavelength.

    Finished my build and tested it on the air, works great and is about 2 s-units better than my Astro plane. Match was perfect with around 49pf of capacitance in the gamma.

    Base New Vector 4K radiator at 0.75 - 0.82 - 0.875 wavelength.

    I know this is an old thread. But has anyone modeled this antenna at just 18 feet off the ground to the feed point. I am wondering what the pattern will look like. I am building one right now that will be mounted at that height. Thanks

    Nice job with the upper insulator, that should fix the arcing problem.

    Any Astro Plane Fans ?

    I have mine at the same height as your, and it works great for local and DX.
