Roy states that this is due to losses in the matching system, in which case would it be possible to 'detune' a similar small antenna and get similar results in that regard. If I can actually do that and see the result, then I will be happy :-) Trev Try running it it parallel with a suitable resistive load. You will see increased 'bandwidth', i.e. the SWR will be lower over a greater frequency range. If you eliminate the aerial altogether then the 'bandwidth' will cover frequencies up to several GHz with a good quality load ;-) I have actually worked a local amateur dummy load to dummy load. Both loads were good quality (one Bird, one Marconi) and all the cabling was short and good quality coax. Leakage was probably less than a few milliwatts. The rigs had different IFs so it probably was the signal frequency we were hearing. Being able to work stations is no measure of antenna efficiency. Heating is not a good way of determining efficiency unless you do real calorimetry. I've tried 100W CW key down into a real 100W continuous load (not one of the Made From Junk ones, which are grossly overrated), for ten minutes and the temperature increase was just discernible, it certainly didn't get hot. vy 73 Andy, M1EBV vy 73 Andy, M1EBV |

Roy, I think you got as far as my first paragraph and didn't read any further. I am not attempting to justify this antenna or the way it works, just trying to get an explanation for one aspect of it. If you had read what I had written you would have seen the answer to your questions above. Is it possible to 'mismatch', for want of a better expression, a loop to achieve an equivalent bandwidth? Yes. Put a resistor in series or parallel with it, or put a pad (attenuator) between it and your rig. When you find the value that gets you the bandwidth of the CFA, you'll also have about the same efficiency. The power will be going into the resistor instead of into the "phasing" and/or matching networks. I have constructed many short verticals for portable and mobile use over the years, but have always experienced narrow bandwidth. It is this aspect of the 'EH' that I would like to understand. It's loss, plain and simple. btw, starting your answer with "Sigh" might be justified if I appeared to be ignoring your continued advice but surely not at first meeting? Sort of. You apparently didn't check groups.google.com to see the great mass of postings I and others have made about those antennas, many times before. A tremendous amount has been written and posted about the CFA and EH antennas. But like astrology, homeopathy, and other hoaxes, no amount of objective evidence keeps people from wanting to believe. Either they don't search it out, they're not able to evaluate it when they find it, or they choose to ignore it when it threatens their beliefs. It's resigning myself to that sad certainty and the Sisyphusian (Sisyphusan?) task of combatting it which makes me sigh. Roy Lewallen, W7EL |
Trev,
As Cecil says, a wider than expected bandwidth in an antenna of given size, is an absolutely sure sign of greater loss somewhere in the wideband antenna system. Unless one knows how the thing is supposed to work, which with EH and CFA is not very likely, there's no indication of where the loss may be except from a visual examination. If there are any coils of relatively thin wire, either in the antenna or tuner/phaser, then that's a good pointer. But experimenting to improve the bandwidth*efficiency product, one way or the other, will not get you very far. As one goes up the other is sure to go down. It's not difficult to guess which you would prefer. A magloop. with a single turn coil of copper pipe at the lower frequencies, is far and away the most narrow banded and therefore the most efficient of all the small antennas. Furthermore it has a built-in, equally very low loss tuner. ---- Reg. ====================================== "Trevor Day" wrote in message ...

You want QRP, Trev, I'll give you QRP. The telemetry transmitters used on the early TIROS weather satellites delivered only 10 milliwatts, yet they produced an S9 signal at a 400 mile high orbit at maximum slant range of 1800 miles to the horizon. I don't know about other TV satellites, but the RCA Satcoms of the late 70s and early 80s used transmitters that delivered only 5 watts at an altitude of 23,000 miles. (I will have to admit, however, that 5 watts into its 30 dB dish produced an EIRP of 5 kw.) Walt, W2DU ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- |

You have to make allowances for Mrs.Nugatory. As always,
I responded very quickly to a genuine request for help, but responded to the lead given by the questioner who mentioned spring/damper rather than spring/mass, and so I responded off-the-cuff without too much forethought.
