A **90-foot tall** top-loaded vertical antenna for the 160-meter band is detailed, constructed from aluminum irrigation tubing. The design incorporates four sets of four guy wires for structural stability, essential for an antenna of this physical size. This _monoband_ vertical is optimized for low-band operation, providing a robust solution for DXing and contesting on 1.8 MHz. The document includes specific construction methods for assembling the aluminum irrigation tubing sections and securing the guy wires. While a full NEC model is not explicitly provided, the physical dimensions and construction materials are sufficient for replication by experienced builders. The antenna's height and top-loading configuration are critical for achieving efficient radiation on 160 meters, particularly in minimizing ground losses.

Constructing an HF End-Fed Half-Wave (EFHW) vertical antenna, the resource details the winding of a monoband matching unit, inspired by _AA5TB_, designed to provide a 50 Ohm impedance match without a ground plane or antenna tuner. It specifies the use of a _T200-2_ ferrite core for the transformer, outlining the 13-turn secondary and 2-turn primary winding process with enamelled copper wire. The document also describes the integration of a coax capacitor, whose length is critical for tuning and varies by band, with specific starting lengths provided for 20m, 17m, 15m, 12m, and 10m operation. The practical application section guides the builder through tuning the antenna using an antenna analyzer, emphasizing the iterative process of spacing secondary windings and trimming the coax capacitor to achieve resonance at the desired band frequency. It highlights the antenna's low angle of radiation, beneficial for DX, and claims up to 2 S-points improvement over a _G5RV_ or similar doublet when used as an omnidirectional vertical. A comprehensive shopping list, including specific part numbers from _Rapid Electronics_, is provided, along with advice on selecting fiberglass fishing poles for support and suitable antenna wire.

Demonstrates the construction of a **homebrew spectrum analyzer** designed by Wes Hayward, W7ZOI, and Terry White, K7TAU, enabling radio amateurs to build a capable test instrument without significant expense. The resource details a _double-conversion superheterodyne_ circuit, employing intermediate frequencies of 110 MHz and 10 MHz, and covers essential blocks such as the time base, logarithmic amplifier, resolution filters, and local oscillators. It highlights the use of hybrid and monolithic ICs, including mixers, amplifiers, and VCOs, to simplify construction while maintaining performance. The design supports useful measurements in the 50 kHz to 70 MHz range, with methods outlined for extending capabilities into VHF and UHF. The authors emphasize that this analyzer, while simple to build, is intended for serious measurements, requiring careful control of signal levels to avoid spurious responses. It uses an oscilloscope for display, with specific instructions for calibration and adjustment of various stages, including the log amplifier and IF gain. The guide provides detailed schematics and component lists for each section, such as the 110 MHz triple-tuned band-pass filter, which achieved **90 dB** image rejection, a significant improvement over double-tuned circuits. Practical advice on alignment and troubleshooting is included, drawing on the authors' extensive experience in RF circuit design.

Outlines recommended operating procedures for amateur radio repeaters, detailing best practices for general on-air conduct. It emphasizes using simplex when possible, monitoring the frequency before transmitting, and maintaining concise, thoughtful transmissions to avoid monopolizing the repeater. The resource also stresses the importance of legal identification, such as the Canadian requirement at the beginning and end of a contact and every thirty minutes of operation. Furthermore, the article provides specific instructions for **autopatch** operation, including access codes and the necessity of brief calls, while cautioning against misuse for long-distance calls or commercial purposes. It highlights the financial support expected from regular users to maintain repeater infrastructure. Finally, the guide differentiates between permanently linked repeaters, which offer extended coverage, and **code access linked repeaters**, explaining the sequence of identification and code entry required to establish and terminate links for broader communication.

Demonstrates the construction of two distinct wideband RF preamplifiers, detailing their component requirements and performance characteristics. The first design leverages monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs) such as the MAR-6, MAR-8, or PGA103, offering a broad frequency response from DC to 2 GHz with a gain of 22.5 dB at 100 MHz and a noise figure typically below 3 dB. This MMIC-based amplifier incorporates protection against power supply transients and features a 50 Ohm input/output impedance, operating from an 8-20 volt supply with low current drain. The second preamplifier design utilizes a BSX-20 transistor, providing amplification across the 14 MHz to 550 MHz range. This simpler, more economical build achieves an average gain of 12 dB at 145 MHz and a noise figure of approximately 1.1 dB. It operates from a 7-15 volt battery supply with a current draw of 6 mA. Both projects emphasize critical construction techniques, such as maintaining short RF connections, ensuring 50 Ohm impedance paths, and mounting the circuit within a shielded enclosure to optimize performance and minimize noise. The resource also discusses phantom power options for antenna-mounted preamplifiers and precautions for use with transceivers, including output protection diodes and static bleeders.

This project details the construction of a **full-sized 40-meter vertical antenna**, born from a renewed interest in 7 MHz operation and a desire for improved effectiveness over simple dipoles. The author, K5DKZ, initially focused on VHF experimentation, which provided an inventory of aluminum tubing and fiberglass spreaders for this endeavor. Before this vertical, K5DKZ utilized an 80/40 meter inverted-vee trap dipole and a 40-meter broadband dipole, but now primarily uses a pair of full-sized, phased, quarter-wave verticals spaced 35 feet apart for serious 40-meter work. The construction involves a base-heavy design for stability, using a 44.5-inch section of 1-1/4 inch steel TV mast driven into 1-3/8 inch aluminum tubing, insulated by a 105-inch section of Schedule 40 PVC pipe. The assembly reaches 31 feet, close to the 32 feet required for a quarter-wavelength on 40 meters, with fine-tuning achieved by winding wire onto a fiberglass spreader. The design is explicitly presented as a foundation for a two-element 40-meter Yagi beam, outlining modifications like substituting aluminum for steel in the base and using an inductive hairpin match for the driven element. The article also discusses tuning considerations for a large 40-meter beam, noting the 100 to 200 kHz upward frequency shift when raised, and suggesting methods for installation on a tower. The author emphasizes the cost-effectiveness and good performance of the monopole approach, especially when multiple verticals are needed.
