The Double Doublet Antenna for 80 and 40 Meters

A double doublet antenna enables 80 meters and 40 meters to coexist on
the same antenna system without interfering with each other. Here's how.

A single 80 m half wave doublet can happily work on 3.5 to 30 MHz with
an antenna matching unit or with specific feeder lengths.

A 4:1 balun is only required when feeder length is short for low
frequency bands

For this have a look at Cecil Moore's web site www.w5dxp.com
