The G3TPW Cobwebb antenna covers five bands, 14 - 28 mhz, including the WARC bands

G3TPW CobWebb Antenna for the 14, 18, 21, 24 and 28 MHz Bands

Homebrew a cobwebb antenna for the HF bands. This page describe a cobwebb multiband antenna resonating on 14 18 21 24 and 28 MHz. The cobweb antenna model can be considered a fan dipole, or better, multiple dipoles fed in parallel.

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 CobWebb antenna project is a compact, multiband HF solution ideal for amateur radio operators. Covering 14-28 MHz, it features a square dipole array with near-omnidirectional coverage and unity gain. This guide details a DIY approach, using a 1:4 current balun for impedance matching. Construction involves aluminum and fiberglass tubing, with optimized element tuning for SWR performance. Weather resistance improvements and resonance shift considerations are also discussed. Build your own CobWebb antenna for an efficient, space-saving HF experience.
