Home Brew inverted "L" antenna - VA3TVA Tom - 2020-04-07 I have been wanting to get on 160M sense I was first licensed. Of my reading, my conclusion is that an inverted L is the most practical way to get on due to antenna size and height requirements to use any other antenna. My thought was to use one of my towers as the base of it, (the vertical section on the inverted L), and then run a wire south to the peak of my barn roof, to give me as much length and height as I could. then start with the analyzer and trip accordingly. Looking for the Elmer's to chime in with their thoughts and suggestions. |
