".J.S..." wrote in message . .. Building something a bit like this : http://www.hamuniverse.com/multidipole.html He suggests setting up one wire at a time starting with the longest, is that the easy way ? I would think adding all wires, a bit too long , and then starting the adjustment with the shortest would be better ? All the other wires overlap the shortest 100%, so I would imagine later trimming of longer wires i parallell would not affect the short wire much. It always bugs me that a length for 80 meters is given to a decimal point. Also 119.2 feet seems way too short to put you in the packet area of 80 meters. I would think it would be closer to 130 feet or so. Maybe more. Then you could cut it to length. I am not going to look up the lengths but you may want to check the other dipoles to see if they are long enough for the low end of the bands. |
