Antenna Loading Coil Construction Techniques - This page explains how to construct high-Q inductor coils.

The Simple Collinear - Wherever there is a need for a vertically polarized omni-directional antenna with gain, a collinear is used. The vertically polarized collinear takes the form of two or more half waves in-line and in-phase, resulting in an omni-directional pattern with maximum radiation near the horizon.

6dbi Colinear Antenna for Wireless LAN  ^pop - This is an short description on how to make a cheap omni antenna for 802.11 wireless LAN cards.

Folding the Dipole - Invented by Heinrich Hertz in around 1886, the half wave dipole is still one of the most simple and practical of antennas and still very much in use today. It consists of a half wavelength long centre fed conductor

Short 40m dipole - The GM4JMU Shortened 7Mhz Dipole

The DBJ-2 portable J-Pole - A Portable VHF-UHF Roll-up J-pole Antennam that resonates on both bands but actually performs as a half wave radiator on both bands

6-Band Windom antenna  ^pop - Theory and construction of a novel trapless center-loaded off-center-fed (cl-ocf) dipole or windom antenna for the 80, 40, 30, 20, 15 and 10m hf amateur radio (ham) bands

DCTL Antennas and other compact antennas - The Distributed Capacitance Twisted Loop is an inexpensive, effective, resonant alternative that can fit in a 8' tall by 12' or so wide space, like a wall, or balcony, even on 80 meters. 160 meters from an apartment, a full wave look and a cage dipole

Quarter Wave Verticals - One of the most useful antennas in the repertoire is the Marconi or quarter wave grounded vertical antenna. Its invention made it possible to halve the length of antennas, simplifying communications, especially at HF and below.
