Portable dipole for 40 Meters band - Pictures and swr reports for a portable dipole antenna for 40 meters band in german

JA7KPI Windom antenna for 40-80 - The total length of this antenna is 41m, height is about 11m, and diameter of element is 2mm. JA7KPI modified this antenna originally used as Inverted-V type of 80m band Dipole. Works on 40 - 80 meters band with acceptable swr.

Simple HF Baluns for 50/75 ohm coax - Show diagrams, winding methods and tables of some 1:1 and 4:1 baluns for 1.8 - 30 MHz suitable for use up to 200W (400W peak) on systems using 50 or 75 ohm coaxial cable input where SWR should not exceed 1.6:1.

An improved 40-80 double extended zepp - Article originally published in ARRL compendium by N6LF revisits the classic double extended Zepp to improve pattern and SWR bandwidth. The DEZepp is essentially two end-fed collinear dipoles.

Vertical antenna for Vacation - Vertical Vacation Antenna for 80, 40 and 20 Meter-Band, by Herbert OE3BMB This antenna is a full size λ/4 for 20m and 40m band, and a shortened λ/4 for the 80m band. Generally on the 40m band the SWR is under 1,6. In 80m and 20m band at the resonant frequency the SWR is about 1,1.

Handheld Yagi - This is the handheld yagi can be used for working satellites when mobile. Offer 420 - 450 MHz 70cm bandwidth and the worst SWR is 1.3:1

Musings on the Miracle Whip design - A modified design of this popular portable antenna The whip described here will tune up to a respectable SWR on 40 metres and up.

The EZ-Tuner - The "EZ-Tuner" is a homebrew automatic legal-limit antenna tuner that covers all amateur HF bands from 160-10 meters. Using a T-network design and controlled by a BASIC Stamp BS2sx microcontroller, the EZ-Tuner will match at least a 16:1 VSWR for either unbalanced or balanced transmission lines.

Antenna Tuning Unit - This homebrewed antenna tuning unit also incorporates a 50-ohm QRP dummy load, power meter (1 or 10 Watts full scale), and SWR meter

Automatic SWR meter  ^updated - Automatic SWR meter and semi-automatic tuning unit by F1FRV

10 m Aerial Matching Unit - This simple matching unit will allow a 10 meters aerial to be used right across the 10m band without the need to physically adjust the elements, and offers a virtual 1:1 VSWR at 50 ohms impedance to the transmitter.
