As far as verticals are concerned, since 2003 I have had great success with a Half Square antenna on 80. (descriptions in the ARRL Antenna Book and in ARRL Antenna Compendium No. 5) I have also used

I have been looking for information on BOGs and have not been able to find any info on measured impedance values. Other than they are low, depends on ground, etc. I thought I would relate my recent e

I sure remember the 73 magazine articles by Gus, W4BPD. What a DXer and humorous speaker/writer. Probably my most memorable club meeting was when I met him in the early 60's. I have almost all those
