Dave,
How about an 'UnUn', then?

That's exactly what the authorities say when they catch up with the
pirate broadcaster. They usually wag one finger back and forth, too
(in symbolic representation of a modulation meter, I suppose).

Or, since this is an unbalanced, pirate antenna,
would that be a 'Pun-Pun'?

Get a UHF panel mount receptacle, SO-239. Find some brass rod


Can somebody 'splain mo'betta?

What's UHF panel?How do I mount receptacle?
What's SO-239? Can I use WD40?

Help! Please!


Step One:
Find an unused pirate (preferably FM).

Step Two:
Make feedline connections to pirate.

Direct connection to coax. Do not use ladder line. Do not use a balun.

History indicates quite strongly that most pirates were unbalanced.

Heathkit used to make a small metal container that held resistive
transmitter dissipative units, surrounded by oil, that would take all
transmitter power, and the SWR was nearly 1:1 on all (HF) bands.

I think that is what you want here.

sure, take a resistor rated to dissipate as much power as your

transmitter,

encase in metal can, add connector, and away you go.

Please yank that last "t" from my email address.
It's "net", not "nett". You know how to do that,
but the spammers won't.
