I need help in choosing a dipole. I want to work
10-80 meters but low on space.....any ideas? help?? Install the longest and highest dipole which will fit comfortably into your back yard and feed it preferably via open-wire line, or via 450-ohms ladder-line. If very short of length extend the dipole by converting it into an inverted-U. Feedline of no particular length. Allow a little exra just in case. Use a simple choke balun between feedline and tuner. And you will have the best all-directional, nearly-all-band dipole for your particular circumstances. (Myself, I prefer to use an end-fed inverted-L. It allows 160m to be used.) ---- Reg. |
