This article describes the construction of a three-band vertical antenna for the WARC bands (10, 18, and 24.9 MHz). Unlike a previous design using thin wire requiring a complex matching device, this version uses a telescopic set of pipes, reducing reactances and simplifying the matching device to two coils and two capacitors. The article provides details on the antenna model, the matching device circuit, and tuning methods, including the use of frameless coils and variable capacitors. With proper tuning, the antenna achieves a VSWR not exceeding 1.3 across all bands, demonstrating a practical and efficient design for amateur radio enthusiasts.

This blog chronicles the development of an 80-meter vertical antenna for amateur radio operation. The author constructs a top-loaded vertical using fiberglass poles, achieving significant performance improvements over their previous end-fed wire antenna. Comparative testing using the Reverse Beacon Network and on-air contacts demonstrates 8-10 dB gain on the east coast. The project evolved to include 40-meter capability through a modified design featuring a four-wire vertical cage, loading coil, and strategic guying system. Despite challenges with signal wobble during windy conditions, the vertical consistently outperforms the end-fed wire, particularly for reaching distant stations during nighttime propagation.
