After three attempts I am puzzled as how to achieve a reasonably flat VSWR across the frequencies I frequent (~ 11 - 10 meter). I'm trying to perfect it in anticipation of a skip-full dog day nights of summer. I...

    Best length for Lowest SWR

    I am currently building a sloping 1/4 wave ground plane. I have a Cobra 148 modified to about 28 MHZ( operating range 10 to 11 meters). What frequency should I use per resonance, i.e. for what frequency should I cut the length of the radiator so as to maintain a acceptable SWR across the board...
