Antennas : Beverage
  • WW2Y/K2WI Beverage design  updated - Ideas for enhanced beverage antenna performance, Single wire beverage improvements and arrays of two beverages. This article explores improving reception with Beverage antennas. It discusses single wire Beverages and their limitations. Then it compares two array configurations: broadside and end-fire. Broadside offers better front-to-side ratio but requires more space. End-fire offers better front-to-back ratio and takes less space but is trickier to implement for multiple bands. The article concludes with a 3-element end-fire design for excellent performance and explores possibilities for dual-band configurations.

  • Beverage Antenna Construction  updated - Types of beverage wires, choose best supports and insulators, multiple antennas at one feedpoint, all well documented with photos and exaustive explanation. This article offers insights on building Beverage antennas for optimal reception. Key takeaways include using strong wire (copperweld or electric fence), proper termination, and a good grounding system (multiple copper rods). The author recommends maximizing antenna length and orienting it towards desired stations. For best results, utilize an antenna tuner and experiment with termination resistors.

Antennas : Feed Lines
  • SWR: Maximum allowable VSWR - VSWR (voltage-standing-wave-ratio) represents the degree with which an antenna is "matched" to the system impedance. Most modern antennas do not require any tuning for optimum performance. VSWR is one of the easiest parameters to measure and VSWR meters are becoming very popular antenna installation tools

Operating Modes : Radio Direction Finding
  • A low power 3.5MHz ARDF transmitter - This low power transmitter is developed for ARDF exercising purposes but of course can be used as super QRP transmitter either. With 1 or 2 meter wire as antenna and a ARDF receiver with ferrite-rod antenna the range is about 100m but with better antennas and a 'real' receiver the range is probably much larger.

Technical Reference : Radio Frequency Interference : Noise Reduction
  • Antenna Noise and Signal Cancelling at LF - By using the signals from two antennas, controlling their relative amplitudes and controlling the phase of one of them, unwanted signal or unwanted noise can be phased out. Circuitry is described which uses the signal from a wire antenna to provide selective cancelling against the signal output from an LF loop antenna.
