With or without an antenna tuner. And be easier to feed. Bob k5qwg ''Random length dipole'' makes little sense. aka 'Doublet' where you have two equal lengths of wire that are not cut to any specific frequency, rather they are cut to fit the maximum dimension you have available. Doublets are typically fed with twinlead and a tuner is used. An alternative would be a non-random length dipole resonant on several swl bands without the need for an antenna tuner. See... http://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/sw_ant/3377.html I used to have the sloper version of the above. Worked great. bob k5qwg http://www.hamuniverse.com/multidipole.html |
