The Linked Dipole is a multiband antenna designed for 80/60/40/30/20m bands, optimized for the (tr)uSDX low bands configuration. It incorporates a 1:1 Balun to prevent common mode currents, ensuring balanced operation with coaxial cable. The Balun, wound on an FT140-43 core, achieves 37-40dB attenuation. The design includes a 3D-printable housing for compactness and waterproofing, with labeled link insulators for ease of use. Wire lengths were meticulously adjusted for optimal performance with a 7m pole and 3m rope extension, ensuring the antenna's ends are off the ground for improved behavior. The project includes downloadable printables for DIY construction.

The U01 emergency communications antenna is a versatile, multiband antenna designed for 80/60/40/20/17/15/10m bands, known for its reliability and compact size. It features a broadband transformer wound on various core options like FT82-43, FT114-43, or FT140-43, with the latter capable of handling up to 100W. The antenna incorporates a PCB with options for SMA and BNC connectors, and a weather-proofed design for durability. The lightweight construction, using materials like DX Wire UL and Polyester rope, makes it highly portable. The antenna's design has been tested and proven within the DARC Chapter U01, with multiple build options and detailed documentation available for DIY enthusiasts.
