I've also used 3" irrigation pipe supported in the 3" PVC. I've telescoped 2" pipe inside the 3" pipe with aluminum bushings that I turned, to make a number of adjustable and portable vertical elemen

Hi, Dick; You ask a very pertinent question, especially for those who might use irrigation pipe for portable antennas. The answer is no, aluminum irrigation pipe is lightweight. I estimate that the 3

EZNEC predicts the resonant frequency is near 7.9 MHz. Adding a top hat of 4 spokes 2.5 feet long lowers it to near 7.1 MHz. Adding 2 spokes 2.5 feet long brings it near 7.4 MHz 73 de Red ___________

The first step is to measure the loss in the coax and determine that it is degraded. An analyzer that can measure impedance is one good way to do that. Open circuit one end and look for minimum imped

Don't depend upon silica gel packs for long term moisture control in less than hermetically sealed containers. Silica gel has a finite capacity for absorbing water and, in any container that can "bre

I have one that has been up over ten years, over 66 radials each about 66' long. Bandwidth is narrow on 80 meters, but it works fine on all bands and can cover the bandwidth on 80 with a tuner. 73, R
