fun antenna to make also for 27 mhz

[Robo]

Hi guys this one is fun to make, its for 2 meters but if u use the 468 then u can make a fun antenna. It is infact a j-pole but it is litle longer end made from aluminum pijp 10mm ore what ever u want to make it from. Good luke end 73.

here is the link it is in Dutch but get the translator of google. If u have quistions give me a PB.

I would love to play with such an antenna on the CB band, one minor detail though, it would be something like 55 feet tall.

It also shows it being mounted from its middle on a tower, 2 meters shown in the diagram is easy, to get an equivalent distance on the CB band with an antenna that has been scaled to the the CB frequencies will not be so easy to mount.

Should anyone try such an antenna I wish you luck, and would love to hear about how well it performs.

I don't have a tower big enough! But maybe a horizontal wire . . .

The lenght is 5.58mtrs it hase same hight like an GP, if u bild an yagi or ground plane whit radials then the antenna it self is 2.68 end the radials are also 2.68 meters. A yagi for 11 meters is even bigger it has also the lenght of 5.50 meters, but thats horizontal. Even the boom stick is taller.
