Antenna Configurations at Home and the Lake
Dyer St House - I’ve had moderate success this summer with the ‘stealthy attic’ loop antenna but almost all of my contacts have been limited to North America. This fall I installed an OCF Windom as my permanent antenna. The Windom is 132' long - 44' on one side; 88' on the other and easily tunes 80M-6 with my internal ATU. I currently have it mounted 20ft high, with plans to raise it to 40ft with the Spiderbeam HD 12m fiberglass pole. Also on order is the OCF/Windom Vertical Radiator from Amateur Radio Supplies. I expect these changes will get my signal out to Europe, Asia and South America. - https://www.amateurradiosupplies.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=11202 - https://www.amateurradiosupplies.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=11203 Lake House - For temporary access to HF bands I have the end fed half wave antenna. Permanently I will install the double bazooka from Maxcon. I have good tree supports and will hope to to get the center installed at 40ft!
