The total length of this antenna is 41m, height is about 11m, and diameter of element is 2mm. JA7KPI modified this antenna originally used as Inverted-V type of 80m band Dipole. Works on 40 - 80 meters band with acceptable swr.

The 6 Band Inverted L Antenna MK3 is a versatile multiband antenna designed for amateur radio operators. This antenna covers 160m, 80m, 40m, 20m, 15m, and 10m bands, making it suitable for a wide range of HF communications. The design is based on a W3DZZ configuration, incorporating traps for optimal performance. The MK3 version features a sturdy 5/8th CB mast, replacing the original timber mast, which enhances durability against harsh weather conditions. The antenna's construction allows for effective operation, particularly on the 40m band, where it has been successfully used to contact distant locations including ZL, VK, and Antarctica. Constructing this antenna requires careful attention to detail, especially regarding the radials and grounding. The traps resonate at specific frequencies, and additional resources are available for building coaxial traps. The antenna is designed to work efficiently without an ATU on the lower bands, while higher bands may require tuning. This project is ideal for both beginner and intermediate operators looking to enhance their station with a reliable multiband antenna.

This article explores a theoretical model for the losses of an 80m / 40m trapped inverted V dipole antenna system using a bootstrap coax trap, but does not examine the pattern of the antenna.

This article describes a simple Inverted L antenna for the HF bands designed to work on 80m, 40m, 30m and 20m

A 40/80 inverted L antenna project by Myron WVØH

A very efficient 80 meter Counterpoise antenna designed to reduce ground losses from inadequate radial systems beneath inverted L antennas, a project by DM2GM and DM4IM based on the original K2AV antenna concept.

A trap antenna dipole covering two differen bands made reusing an old 160/80m inverted vee antenna.

A 3 band dipole antenna for 40-80-160 meter bands, It's made with easily available materials and is designed for inverted V mounting. The antenna is shortened for these bands, but still manages to make contacts in 80m and 160m with stations in Canada and the USA. The construction details are provided, including the dimensions of the antenna elements and the traps. The antenna is easy to build and provides good performance in all three bands. In Italian.

An Inverted-L with its long leg sloping to the ground. It will still work very good, even if the horizontal wire has to be sloped diagonally to the ground, as long as you have enough horizontal space to keep it at about a 45 degree angle or more from the pole.

80m Inverted-L Antenna, Base-loaded for 160m antenna. This antenna is not a good DX antenna however within small garden where true DX antennas would be impossible it has performed very well.
