A double bazooka antenna plan for the cw portion of the 40 meter band

A bazooka antenna project for the 7 Mhz, includes dimension for to homebrew your own bazooka for HF bands

The page provides detailed instructions on how to build a double bazooka antenna for the 40 meters band. It includes information on materials needed, measurements, and assembly steps. The antenna can be configured as an extended dipole or an inverted V, offering low noise, wide bandwidth, and a 1:1 standing wave ratio. The content also offers calculations for other bands and includes photos of the antenna fabrication process.

A bazooka coax antenna for 40 meters band design by CA6TYS

A quarter wave vertical omni-directional antenna for 7 MHz. Formulas for dimensions in feet and meters are provided. Ideal radial angle is between 35° and 45°. Velocity factor (Vf) varies based on coax type.

The Dipole Bazooka Antenna for 40 meters is a popular choice among amateur radio operators. Its design allows for easy construction using materials like RG58 coaxial cable and PVC. Measurements are calculated using specific formulas; for instance, at a frequency of 7,100 MHz, the total length is approximately 19.74 meters. This antenna offers a performance range of 97% to 99%, with an impedance of 49 to 52 ohms. Additionally, it can handle up to 1 kW of power and requires no modifications for connection.
