Good Afternoon, I recently erected an 134' OCF 7 band Windom @ 40' on my 50' tower with each end ending about 10' off the ground. The Windom is being fed with LMR 400 through a 4:1 balun. I am expe
Wire connected to the tower, no insulation ?? Why an OCF as an inverted V. Why not a center feed dipole? _______________________________________________ ______________________________________________
The OCF is the best option for my limited real estate. Center feed would not fit! Other option would be end-fed. Mike K5MLC _______________________________________________ ___________________________
Hi guys, An OCF antenna works best if the major part of the wire is horizontal. That's at least my experience. 73 Bert, VE3NR --Original Message-- From: towertalk-bounces@contesting.com [mailto:tower
My experience as well some years back...I used a Radio Works 'California Windom 160' at 120 ft up that was most assuredly flat. The center section is also supposed to be vertical from what I remember
The compromise in an OCF dipole is a higher SWL across all of the dipole's amateur bands for multiple band coverage; in other words, it is a compromised design that affords multiple band operation fo
