Hamstick dipole for 80m

How do you adjust the coil at that height? Of course I find that I choose and spend most of my time on one band per mobile session, so maybe it isn't a big problem. - 73 de Mike N3LI - Well, I only have a few taps on the coil, so I don't have to change all that often. I might have three taps for 80m, a couple for 40m, one each for the rest of the bands.. I'll tune the antenna in the normal 11 ft mode, using the usual tap for the freq I'm using, and then I add the 3 ft mast. I'll stay on the same coil tap, but shorten the stinger a couple of inches or so. I'm on 80 or 40 most all the time, so I don't have to change but maybe twice a day.. 40 all day, and then I'll switch to 75 at night when it gets dark. |

We'd probably stretch "evening" until midnight. After that it's "night", no matter how light. Actually, we don't speak English at all, of course. :-) |
