Ham radio site devoted to classic collectible amateur and military radios, featuring vintage ham radio color photos and commentary, free downloadable manuals and pamphlets and links for ham radio hobbyists.

A rotatable 40-meter dipole antenna designed and constructed to fit within backyard constraints. The project utilized two fishing poles attached to a fiberglass center pole, resulting in an easy-to-build, lightweight, and cost-effective antenna. Essential materials included fishing rods, a center support pole, mast support, and basic tools. Linear loading was implemented to achieve the necessary length for optimal performance. The antenna, which proved effective during the contest, is ideal for field days and additional contest bands. Assembly and installation were straightforward, showcasing the antenna's practicality and efficiency.

145 MHz is the target frequency for this 2-meter Skeleton Slot Yagi Stack antenna project. The design focuses on feeding two stacked Yagi antennas using a skeleton slot radiator, which is a unique approach for VHF enthusiasts. The project details the construction process, including the loop tapered matching section for impedance matching, ensuring optimal performance. The use of specific components like the EH789 element holder and MB456 main mast bracket is highlighted, providing clarity on the assembly process. The construction utilizes 20x20 box aluminum bar for durability and precision. Key dimensions, such as the element length (ER-ED4) and main boom spacing (MM123), are meticulously outlined. This attention to detail aids in replicating the antenna design accurately.
