Perhaps he meant a 1/2 wavelength antenna? I have grown to appreciate and have the greatest results with them, from 11m to 40m ... I simply load a wire to 1/2 wave for 80m and 160m as I no longer have the space for the length required at those freqs ... same with MW ... and of course, a 1/2 wave at LW freqs is simply laughable -- other than a heavily loaded wire ... I mean, a half wave a 6080Mc is a long wire in my book ... Perhaps one is suitable for a given SW listener, this page might provide some info?: http://aa5tb.com/efha.html Regards, JS |
