T2FB & TFM Antenna - VA3-GUF-Frank - 2020-02-27
The multi-band Tilted Terminated Folded Dipole antenna was presented at the Club meeting February 26th, 2020. This small footprint antenna is easy to deploy as demonstrated at Field Day by Adam (VE3-IZS) with no tuner required.
Antenna Presentation slides link.
Interesting aspect is converting the T2FD to a terminated Folded Monopole antenna that uses only once side of the dipole. Even easier to deploy in an emergency as long as you have tall enough trees around to rais it.
Try it out and provide your feedback to how well it worked.
Cheers
