The Super J Pole antenna is a co-linear vertical consisting of a number of half wave length vertical elements separated with half-wave length stubs (Tuning stub) feed with a folded matching stub by vk6ysf

This strange looking antenna is a combination of Coupled-Resonator principle by K9AY and a quarter stubs to achieve low angle radiation pattern. Designed with 4nec2 NEC based antenna modeler and optimizer for 145/220/440MHz bands

Automatic band decoder, six way antenna relay, band reject coaxial stubs and more. Top Ten Devices is a two-man company formed in 1991 by N3RD and W2VJN.

Will additional coax stubs improve Band Pass Filter performance?

Optimizing the Performance of Harmonic Attenuation Stubs

When operating contest in a multi transceiver environment interferences between the 40m and 20m are guaranteed. An easy and inexpensive way to reduce interferences is to add coax stub filters

This project documents the construction of a coaxial 50 MHz notch filter to eliminate inter-band interference between 50 and 70 MHz transceivers. Using RG-213 coax and based on quarter-wave stubs, the filter achieved a 44 dB attenuation at 50.060 MHz while maintaining low insertion loss on 70 MHz. A dual-stub design broadened the notch response and minimized attenuation on 70 MHz to 0.2 dB. Fine-tuned using an FA-NWT network tester and Elecraft XG3 signal source, the filter effectively resolved interference for seamless dual-band operation.

This article explores the role of velocity factor (VF) in calculating stub lengths for VHF/UHF Baluns. It clarifies misconceptions about VF's relevance, distinguishing between coaxial cable interior fields and external stub fields. Practical examples, such as the Pawsey Stub and Coaxial Cable Balun, are analyzed alongside experimental findings. The results reveal that traditional VF adjustments are unnecessary for stubs with external fields but critical for internal coaxial applications. Historical and theoretical insights provide a comprehensive perspective for antenna enthusiasts and designers.
