so after the scanking discone antenna i got another antenna i got the hustler 6btv antenna. if anybody has one of these antennas then please comment below about if ive done anything wrong in setup. www.buymeacoff...
Nice one hope you pass, enjoying the hobby i hope. I placed down the wires then few weeks to let them sink into the grass/mud so i can cut the grass, some small plastic pegs are good to keep them where they should be, as for the siro 2016 it will be ok for 20m-10M but will be less effective at 20m will be good for 10m though (28MHz) good luck on your foundation
hi its steven austin outdoors m7byf who was on your livestream the other night, anyway nice antenna the husler got a few friends who have them but i didn,t know you had a cobweb i have just got mine last week and its amazing 1.0 on every band its the 7 band one from poland but what i wanted to ask you is wot is that like fan dipole antenna you got comin from the cobweb looks ok and good luck with the husler 73 m7byf
Hi Steven yes i remember you, its my homemade " Cobra" dipole i wanted an antenna for 80m but that would fit my 8m garden, i have a RU-vid video about it
yes ill check it out because i bought the uk antennas 80m endfed for 80 and its good on every band except 80 wot i wanted it for lol how long is each leg because if its any good i might try one because our gardens about 10 11m 35ft both sides so it should fit ill have a look and see thanx mate @@M0KNM-Amateur-Radio
If i remember right there was over 123ft on each side, because there was only 50mm between each fold back i had to use more wire than a normal 80m dipole. I think its a case of experimenting to see what works for you, but defo start with more than 123ft.
With all those traps and coils, it looks like a vertical dummy load to me, especially on the lower frequencies. Why not use a DX commander? Its a no compromise vertical. Just my opinion. GI0UTE
I did think about a DX Commander it was just someone at my local club said they got this and would i like it, ive not heard anything really bad about them
I bought a 5btv before doing much research on them, after reading comments like yours I was really disheartened and almost just sold it on (expecting to find it’s a dummy load), thankfully I didn’t because after from 10m and 80m it’s a fantastic antenna, I’ve worked all continents on it. Broke through pile ups and just this week worked the J38R DXpedition on 40m CW running 100w and a tiny system of radials
