You remind me. I have built those antennas, long ago, in the past for
10M+ bands.

If I remember correctly they were termed "bazooka antennas." I kind of
remember there was a recommended ratio of coax shield dia. to inside
diameter of the sleeve--possibly the ratio of the radiating element
figured into securing a 50/75 ohm match also?

You have any more data on that antenna?

Hi John,

I found the image he http://www.alpharubicon.com/elect/vertdipoleniet.htm
and cleaned it up. There're more links to bazooka antennas he
http://www.dxzone.com/catalog/Antennas/Bazooka/ I thought this construction
method: http://www.start.ca/users/ldblake/bazooka.htm was particularly
innovative.
