This simple antenna was installed on the attic. Antenna was matched with help an Automatic ATU in 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, 12 and 10 meter amateur Bands. The Antenna worked satisfactory on the above mentioned bands. -
This article details a ham radio operator’s experience setting up HF antennas in an antenna-restricted community. Initially using an AEA Isoloop magnetic loop for QRP PSK, the author later built an attic antenna system, including dipoles for multiple HF bands and a slinky dipole for 40 meters. The setup allowed for operation on six bands with acceptable VSWR. Despite space constraints and some compromises, performance was effective. The article highlights practical strategies, emphasizing experimentation and antenna modeling for optimizing performance in limited-space environments. A valuable guide for ham radio operators facing similar restrictions. -
This article details the development of an 80-meter antenna within the confines of a restrictive covenant community. Faced with limited space, the author explores various options before implementing a clever hybrid design: a short 30-foot vertical wire running discreetly down the building's exterior combined with a capacitive top hat installed in the attic. Computer modeling confirmed the superiority of capacitive loading over inductive loading, increasing radiation resistance from 6 to 14 ohms. The perimeter wire top hat, naturally supported by the attic structure, resonates effectively at 3.5 MHz. The system is completed with four buried 60-foot radials installed "after dark" to maintain compliance with community restrictions.
