Default Description of W9INN 40/80 dipole

Thanks for the description!

It sounds like a design worth copying.

John,

If you recall the old W9INN ads in QST you he has a 40/80 dipole. It
was full size 40 meter dipole with what I remember he called a resister
(that was really a coil) and about a 9 foot length of wire past the coil
for the 80 meter antenna. It was fed with coax to a center insulator.
Bill did not believe in baluns.

I modified the antenna by two sets of wires. One for 10 MHz and the
other for 18 MHz. The 18 MHz seems to be resonant for 6 meters and the
whole mess works on 24 MHz as well.

I did not see it on the K2HG web page

73, Dick AA5VU
