short wave kits

Tenna Dipper Kit - The "Tenna Dipper" is a low power antenna analyzer and ATU tuning aid. With this handy accessory, you can determine the 50 Ohm resonance frequency of antennas or you can adjust your antenna tuner for a 50 Ohm match without generating QRM

KE4UYP Linear loaded vertical antenna - This is a vertically and horizontally polarized antenna the Linear loaded 1/4 wave length vertical radiator introduces very little loss for 80 or 160 meters

2-Element-Yagis for HF  ^{updated  pop} - 2-Element parasitic Yagis for the Shortwave-Bands 10-12-15-17-20-30m. The antennas are feeded with the DK7ZB-match. A quarter-wave choke of coax is grounded at the socket.

Build a 2 Meter 5/4 Wave Antenna  ^pop - This antenna is unique in that it is enclosed entirely in 3/4" PVC by N1HFX

40 M. triangular full wave vertical loop

Shorty Forty Antenna - Short dipole antenna for 40 meter ham band. Can be put up in the space required for a 20 meter dipole.

YLRADIO - Full wave delta loop - This Delta Loop is a three-sided antenna suspended high in the air by vertical supports, such as tall evergreen trees. Recommended height is 40 feet or more at highest point, but higher is better.

80 m 3/4 wave LLV - This is a vertically polarized Phased array. The left Vertical wire is 180 degrees out of phase

End fed halfwave antenna and matching unit - One is an EFHWA for 20-40 meters, and the other is a matching unit for the antenna by n0lx

The full-wave loop antenna - These omnidirectional antennas offer Horizontal polarization, and about 2.1 dbd of gain. They are much quieter than a dipole or a vertical, have a broader bandwidth and will usually out perform a dipole antenna.

AMANDX Dipole - The longwire antenna is a very effective antenna for the listener who wants to cover all of the shortwave bands from 530 KHZ to 30 MHZ.a

Receiving Antenna Design - Learn basic theory on antennas, and notes on homebrewing efficient shortwave antennas

6m Half wave vertical - This antenna is very useful for receiving or scanning purposes, but you can use it for transmitting, too. It is 2,94m long and has a pi-configuration (Collins-Filter) for the matching.

9H1LO - Stanley Grixti - 9H1LO is I.A.R.U. Microwave Manager and Vice-Secretary for M.A.R.L

RSGB GB2RS News casts - Every week the RSGB produces a News Bulletin for Radio Amateurs and Short Wave listeners. They are read live on Sundays (usually) by a team of readers throughout the UK on HF, VHF and above. Listen To The Main News MP3 (G4NJH) or to GB2RS on your iPod
