right me old Hubert, don't know what the grief is for? The bloke asked a
simple antenna question! If you take and erect at ground level, two 1/4 wave vertical antenna elements, spaced 1/2 wavelength apart. Install a good radial earth. Fit both vertical elements with 1/4 wavelengths pieces of 50 ohm coax cable, Take both cables to a, 2 female / 1 male, pl259 T piece, in the middle at 1/4 wavelength . The T out cable goes to rig. Then take a 1/2 wave piece of coax with a PL female plug on one end, and a male on the other. Insert this 'stub' between the vertical element and the T piece. this make one side of the array feeder, 1/2 wavelength longer, making it 3/4 wavelength, this will alter phase and direction from end fire, to broadside. Clear as mud? |
