I want to construct a 80-40-20 meter dipole, but want to trap the 80 meters to shorten the length. Does anyone know where I can get good quality traps? I am a beginner as far as antenna theory. Vinnie S. Thanks for all the responses, but I seem to be more confused because it seemed I got differing opinions. As I said, I am a beginner at antenna theory. The frequencies I am trying to make an antenna for, are centered at 3.875, 7.225, and 14.250. Those are the center for the phone frequencies on the US bands. I wanted to shorten the 80 meter band antenna. I would have kept the 40 and 20 at the specified lengths. I guess I will buy the ARRL book. But they also make a long wire classic book. I might get that instead. . Vinnie S. |
