This resource provides a detailed guide on constructing a J-pole antenna specifically for the 2 meter band, which is popular among amateur radio operators. The article outlines the materials needed, including various sizes of aluminum pipes and PVC, as well as the tools required for assembly. It emphasizes the simplicity and effectiveness of the J-pole design, making it an ideal choice for newcomers to amateur radio. The instructions are straightforward, allowing users to build the antenna in less than an hour, and include tips for tuning the antenna for optimal performance. In addition to the construction details, the resource includes practical advice on the assembly process, such as how to cut and join the pipes, as well as how to mount the SO239 connector. The author shares personal experiences and insights on achieving a low standing wave ratio (S.W.R.) and suggests modifications for creating bi-band or tri-band J-pole antennas. This comprehensive guide is enriched with photographs that illustrate the construction steps, making it easier for users to follow along and successfully build their own J-pole antenna.

How to make the Super antenna. To build this antenna you need a lot that is at least 100 feet across. Antenna covers all bands 80-10 meters + 30, 17, 12 meter WARC Bands This antenna works as a Full Wave Loop on 80 Meters and also works as a 2 wavelength open loop or Bi-Square on the 40 Meter band

Building A Full-Wave Quad Loop Antenna for 6 Meters. This is an easy antenna to build and the materials cost about $15-20. It exhibits 1.8dB gain over a 1/2-wave dipole. Using an open-wire parallel feedline (commonly called ladder line) with an antenna tuner, it tunes up on the 10m band as a 5/8-wave loop as well

The K5USS 6 Meter Hentenna Project page on Hamuniverse provides detailed instructions on how to build a 6 meter directional antenna with 3.5 dBd gain. The project is presented with permission from K5USS, Charlie of Richardson, Texas. This directional antenna is a full wave loop on 6 meters, horizontally polarized but mounted vertically, with a 50 ohm impedance, ideal for 6 meter SSB operations. The page is useful for hams looking to construct their own directional antenna for improved performance on the 6 meter band.
