Hi Gents, I'm building a clone of the famous BCS (Battle Creek special) antenna. There are some design differences between my model and the "standard" BCS. Namely: 1. A "Hy-Gain style" trap for 40m.

Hi Tom, When you say "...by far the worse traps ..." does that include traps like my L/C trap with a "standard" coil and coax capacitor? OK, good point. I changed the resonance....will try it when th

Hi Dave, The 500 ohms worth of resistance is all you will ever need to bleed off any normal static charges from your Beverage antenna. In case of nearby lightning strikes an RF choke will have far t

Hi Dave, NO! don't do that. ;-) The barbed wire fence can act as an antenna and any corroded joints on the fence can cause problems with noise, intermod, etc. IMHO.... Buried, short radials will work

FWIW... What's really cool about some of the "professional" radios used to locate RFI, is that there is a small speciallized oscilloscope built in the radio that displays a "signature" of the noise.

I've done that at 500 feet and even controlled a small motor. I don't have sandy or lossy soil so resistance was low enough. Worked out well for me. 73, Charlie N0TT ________________________________

Tom, why not use a pully and weight at one end of your wire antenna? The pully would be fastened to one of the trees, then the antenna rope through the pully and down to a weight. Use a marine quali
