Does a slinky antenna really work as a compact antenna?
IOW, does it perform as a 64 foot antenna rather than a 15 footer?


IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FER GUMMINT WORK which iirc was where it began , in
Korea, I think.

there was an excellent slinky site now dead that acknowledged it had
shortcomings as a transmit antenna outisde its resonance (7.2 mhz) but
mine went up to 15 mhz as a receive antenna falling off as frequencies
elevated. Above 17.6 mhz it was worthless

I prefer my North county active SWL antenna which on a 10' PVC pipe mast
works BCB to 28 mhz
