A 10-20 meters coverage delta loop antenna. After relocating, DL2HCB designed a multiband loop antenna to cover 10-20m with an open-wire feed for impedance matching and compact installation. Inspired by the mini-X-Q design, a modified 10m delta-loop was built, enhanced with a 1/4 wave shorted stub for 28 MHz using 450-ohm ladder line. The antenna delivers east-west broadside radiation and performs as a closed loop on other bands. Operational tests yielded strong European signals and successful DX contacts, including a 20m QRP QSO with FY/DJ0PJ.

GM4JMU shortened dipole for 40 meters band. This article illustrates in detail how to build a resonant antenna for 7.030 MHz. Cut two 10.25-meter pieces of insulated wire, wind 40 turns of wire onto plastic tubing, and connect the wire to a central insulator using a choke balun built of RG174AU coax and a ferrite toroid. Once built, the antenna is adjusted by altering the wire length to produce the lowest Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) for best performance. The guide emphasizes careful building and adjustment for the best results.

Optimal Working Frequencies (MHz) for High Frequency (HF) / Shortwave Radio. By region, updated monthy.

This resource provides a historical listing of **unlicensed amateur radio beacons** active in the United States as of December 1993, specifically detailing both **LOWFER** (Low Frequency Experimental Radio) and **MEDFER** (Medium Frequency Experimental Radio) operations. The data includes beacon frequencies in kilocycles (Kc), identification codes, state locations, and the callsigns or names of the beacon operators. Frequencies range from 166.667 Kc for LOWFER to 1706.0 Kc for MEDFER, illustrating the spectrum utilized by these experimental stations. The information was originally compiled by Mark Burkart and relayed to the rec.radio.shortwave newsgroup by Rick Robinson, KF4AR. The list serves as a snapshot of experimental beacon activity from the early 1990s, offering insight into the types of operations and the individuals involved in unlicensed, low-power transmissions. It highlights specific beacon IDs like "ABC SC" on 510.5 Kc and "GK HI" on 1620 Kc, alongside operator details such as Todd Roberts (WD4NGG) and Herb Vanderbeek (WY6G). While not a current operational guide, it is a valuable historical document for those interested in the evolution of LF/MF experimental radio and the early days of internet-based amateur radio information sharing.

What is NVIS Near Vertical Incident Skywave. This article on NVIS (Near Vertical Incidence Skywave) explores its role in short-range HF communication, covering 0-200 miles. NVIS utilizes antennas with high radiation angles and frequencies below the ionospheric critical frequency to achieve reliable local contact. He details optimal antennas, like low dipoles, and practical tips for maximizing NVIS performance, emphasizing its advantages such as reduced noise and independent operation without repeaters. However, challenges include frequency sensitivity and the need for appropriate antenna setups at both ends for effective communication.
