G3JVL's 5/8 6m Vertical antenna
 

Hello,
Has everyone build this antenna?

http://www.uksmg.org/content/vertical.htm

I need more information about base coil (turns spacing etc.)
I am about to modify an old CB antenna to 50mhz 5/8.
Any other information about a 6m 5/8 matching section is wellcome.

Kosmas,
The given diagram shows the number of turns and diameter of the
matching coil. I'm not sure that the exact spacing is going to make a
huge difference. And as long as it's at least 'close' to what's
shown, should take no more than the 'normal' amount of tuning.
Good luck.
