Two perfect examples of a closed mind, but not to worry
enlightenment will be along shortly.

Enlightenment will surely come if Art connects that antenna to the KW amp
he claims to have.


Go back to Art discription of his antenna.IT sounds to me as if it evolved
from a double bazooka.


Make a bazooka antenna with these mods:
.
Forget about the ladder line part of the dipole and make it all like the
center coax section.


Replace the coax section with lamp cord


Now make it fit in a couple of shoe boxes by coiling it all up.


Isnt this a good discription of Art's antenna?


Jimmie


I had a couple of 100 ft rolls of speaker wire on cardboard reels so I
decided to connect them together as Art had described and they give VSWR
indication much as he described even if I stick them in a metal locker. This
may be just what a lot of hams are looking for as it is a very quiet
antenna.


Jimmie


g'day Jimmy

welcome to the minority and stand by for Richard to call you a
fool and stupid for listening to Art, I am sure you are the first
among many who will now build the antenna and find out for themselves
instead of listening to those who say if it is not in a book it cant
be done
well done.

Derek


g'day Jimmie

Miss spelt your name my apologies.
