Hi Group,
Let's say I have a 15 meter dipole. If I were to take a ferrite core and place a core along the dipole for the lenght of 6 meters, having two cores on either side. The question is would this antenna now work as a dipole on 6 meters but not on 15 unless the reactance of the core was low at 21 MHz? Does the core act as a RF block but not as a inductance with a reactance at 15meters? If it is a inductive reactance, then reducting the lenght of the dipole would bring down swr on 15m. I have seen the ferrite emi cores which clamp around the wire, would these work for 100 watts? If I had a way to move the cores along the dipole, I could create a multiband antenna, true? I am sure there are better ways to do such, aka trap dipole but I like to give this some thought. De KJ4UO |
