Needs to be either in the attic, or on a metal patio cover. A vertical on top of a 20 foot pole "might" be possible. Currently I am using a 1/4 wave vertical mag mount on top of a metal patio cover. I also have a half wave dipole in the attic. So, any ideas for something better? Wayne W5GIE I built a 6 meter cubical quad for the June VHF contest. Wood frame with real bamboo spreaders. Rotate with a TV antenna rotator. Worked great till the rains started. Wires are resting directly on the bamboo. SWR when wet is 4.9:1. Dry way 1.1:1. Weather getting hot and dry again, so hope it returns to what it was. Also fabricating parts for a 6 meter Moxon antenna. Either antenna can be vertically or horizontally polarized. I prefer horizontal for SSB. Paul, KD7HB |
