• 40m Vertical End-Fed Antenna - A quarter wave vertical end-fed antenna for the 40 meters band. As all vertical antennas, also this aerial requires a good earthing system. In this project the ground is composed by twelve 4, wires buried in the lawn by using a spade to create a slit to drop the wire into.

• Beverage Antenna Construction - 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.

• Transmission Lines - Whenever you choose a coax feedline, the frequency of operation is a very important consideration. Over the operating bandwidth of the coax the VSWR is low, typically 1.2:1 or better. Insertion loss is also an important parameter. It is usually specified in dB/foot and is a linear relationship.

• Wire Antenna Design Lengths - The Classic Numbers for All Types of Wire Antennas at HF. Wire antennas need to be made a bit long and cut to resonance. They are affected by height above the ground and surrounding objects. In order to get an idea of the right place to start, certain formulas are generally accepted.

• Double Half-Delta Loop RX Antenna - This wire antenna was developed to offer for a small, low-band, ground independent directional receiving antenna, it requires only two support poles. It is basically composed by two interconnected half delta loops and is better than a single flag or EWE, and almost as good as two phased EWE in the same space.
