I have a 70', 18" face aluminum tower that I've wanted to shunt-feed for 160 for a long time. Since my 160 wire antenna was accidently pulled down by roofers last fall the shunt feed is very much on

Okay, more dumb questions! I've got my 400' inverted-V doublet, fed with 600 ohm open wire line, up and in the clear. Everything appears to be working FB. I get good signal reports all around the USA

Hello All: I'm moving ahead with my plans to shunt feed a tower, and have it functional by next fall. A question occurs about how much of the 160 meter band can be covered when shunt-feeding. While m

I recently aquired a hipot tester and tested the vacuum-capacitors I had planned to use for matching my shunt-fed tower. The high-voltage caps flunked. I have two 5 KV caps of suitable capacitance th

Will be raising my 72' HD crankup next week after repairs to my 6M EME array. I will then be attempting to shunt-feed that tower for 160M, and possibly 80M. And, thanks to all that sent me informatio
