Halo antenna plan for the six meters band

This DIY vertical multi-band Windom antenna offers a practical and effective solution for amateur radio enthusiasts seeking a versatile and compact antenna for HF communications. Its simplicity of construction, multi-band capability, and favorable performance make it a valuable addition to any radio shack. The article provides detailed instructions on constructing the antenna and balun, along with diagrams and component specifications. Field tests demonstrated successful contacts with stations across Europe and North America on 14, 18, and 28 MHz. The antenna exhibited comparable performance to a W3DZZ dipole and outperformed a Cobweb antenna on 18 MHz. Low noise levels were observed, effectively suppressing background noise.

The page provides information on a simple 50MHz J-Pole Antenna project based on the DK7ZB design. It explains the principle of the Wireman-J-Pole, the feeding process, practical mounting, and simulation results using MMANA GAL. The content aims to guide amateur radio operators in building their own J-Pole antennas for the 6-meter band.
