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

A question occurs about how much of the 160 meter band can be covered when shunt-feeding. Is it possible to design a matching unit (perhaps a bit complex) that will cover most of the band (possibly a

Here's my experience: 54 ft freestanding 3-section shunt fed tower. 15 elements from 3 antennas stacked on the mast. More than half of the elements as-built are DC isolated from the booms/mast. 3/8 i

In a previous e-mail, I stated that a Swedish ham's two-wire shunt feed system increased his BW from 100 kHz to 110 kHz. That was in error. I revisited those model files and here are the corrected va

My change from a single wire to a three wire cage unipole certainly made my antenna bandwidth useable. I think several NAB tech papers on this suggest that the copper wire cage also increases the ove

I agree with Herb 1000 % I also switch to cage feed antennas here on the high Desert because the ground out here is very poor . My verticals are 70 foot top loaded ( t ) with 62 radial on each of the

Hello gents Just checked the tower. 140Ft shunt fed tower free standing. Shunt fitted at 30ft. tapping point suggested by Earl. single wire shunt. 1800 = 1- 1.2 1825 = 1 -1.2 1850 = 1 - 1.1 1875 = 1
