The W5GI Mystery Antenna is a versatile multi-band wire antenna designed for amateur radio operators. It covers frequencies from 80 meters to 6 meters, making it suitable for a wide range of operating conditions. The antenna features a low feed point impedance, allowing for easy matching with most radios, whether or not an antenna tuner is used. Its construction is straightforward, requiring only two vertical supports approximately 130 feet apart, making it ideal for hams without towers. Users have reported excellent performance, particularly on the 20-meter band, where it outperforms similar designs like the G5RV. This antenna is unique in its design, incorporating three half waves in-phase on 20 meters, resulting in a six-lobe radiation pattern. Despite its effective performance, the antenna is challenging to model, which adds to its mystique. The W5GI Mystery Antenna has gained popularity among amateur radio enthusiasts worldwide, with many users praising its ease of construction and effectiveness. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced operator, this antenna offers a fun and rewarding project that can enhance your HF capabilities.

A 10-20 meters coverage delta loop antenna. After relocating, DL2HCB designed a multiband loop antenna to cover 10-20m with an open-wire feed for impedance matching and compact installation. Inspired by the mini-X-Q design, a modified 10m delta-loop was built, enhanced with a 1/4 wave shorted stub for 28 MHz using 450-ohm ladder line. The antenna delivers east-west broadside radiation and performs as a closed loop on other bands. Operational tests yielded strong European signals and successful DX contacts, including a 20m QRP QSO with FY/DJ0PJ.

The Pfeiffer Maltese Quad Antenna System presents a unique approach to traditional quad antennas by utilizing a linear loading technique. This method effectively reduces the overall size of the antenna while maintaining its performance capabilities. Designed by Andrew Pfeiffer, the antenna's configuration resembles a Maltese cross, which not only enhances its structural integrity but also allows it to withstand challenging environmental conditions. This system is adaptable, offering various configurations from a 4-spreader Maltese Quad to a 16-spreader Maltese Quadruple-Cross, making it suitable for operators looking to optimize their setup without sacrificing efficiency. This antenna system is particularly versatile, covering multiple bands including 40, 20, 17, 12, and 10 meters. The design focuses on minimizing the physical footprint while ensuring effective signal transmission and reception. Amateur radio operators can benefit from the detailed plans available in the accompanying PDF, which outlines the construction process and specifications. Whether you're a seasoned DXer or a newcomer to the hobby, the Pfeiffer Maltese Quad Antenna System offers a practical solution for enhancing your station's capabilities.

Build your mobile antenna which outperforms Hustler by 10db and ATAS-100 by 18db. From 80 to 10m. The HB9ABX mobile HF antenna, designed for 10 to 80 meters, was developed by Felix Meyer and outperforms commercial antennas like HUSTLER and YAESU ATAS-100/120 in field tests. Made from fiberglass rods and enamelled copper wire, it includes a loading coil with adjustable taps for tuning across bands. Installation requires solid grounding, and adjustments are made via whip length and coil settings. An antenna tuner ensures optimal SWR. Users must handle fiberglass with care due to health risks. This design proved highly effective in South America and Europe.

We worry a lot about Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) in amateur radio since SWR is one indication of how well our antenna system is working. Most HF transceivers and antenna tuners have built in SWR meters. SWR is a measure of a transceiver' s output power verses the portion of that power reflected by the antenna system
