Here is a way to ease assembly and balancing of a large antenna. The elements and boom are assembled separately in most cases. Once they are all together set up 2 tripods in the assembly area and put the boom on them.

Luksa industries design and manufacture mechanically operated aluminum telescoping masts and telescoping tripods to support communications and military antennas

KE4UYP designed this Balanced Self Matching Feed Line System for people who want the very best feed line they can have on a Monobanded antenna

This project produces a sturdy tripod for small vertical antenna support using readily available electrical metal tubing (EMT) or conduit

The Vertical Buddi Beam on 20m using no Coils. n this article I am going to describe a totally new way to construct and use a very old design the two element Yagi antenna. Unlike the traditional Yagi this design does not require a Tower or a boom, it is 100 percent portable and most important high- performance and easy to assemble using standard Buddipole components.

Presents field test results for an **elevated SuperAntenna MP-1** portable antenna, configured on a tripod for HF operations. The resource details the antenna's setup and performance during a portable activation, focusing on its use across the 40-meter, 20-meter, and 17-meter amateur bands. It includes observations on signal reports and operational considerations for this specific portable antenna configuration. The content provides practical insights into deploying the MP-1 antenna in a non-ground-mounted setup, which is often a point of interest for portable and QRP operators. It documents the author's experience with the antenna's tuning and effectiveness for making contacts under real-world conditions, offering a user-perspective review of its capabilities. The article also features photographic evidence of the antenna's deployment, illustrating the tripod mounting and the overall portable station setup.

In this post by N6CTA, discover the conversion of the Yaesu ATAS-120A screwdriver antenna for portable use. The author details the creation of two sets of radials, 16 and 32 in 16ft lengths, aiming to optimize the efficiency of ground-mounted antennas. Additionally, insights are shared on attaching male quick disconnect blade tabs, with potential plans for a radial plate kit.

A 13-foot total radiating element length is achieved by combining a Buddipole Long Telescopic Whip with 4 feet of modified tripod tubes, forming a low-profile, multiband antenna for **POTA** operations. The resource details the transformation of an Amazon Basics Aluminum Light Photography Tripod Stand, focusing on electrically isolating the top two radiating sections from the bottom support. John, VA3KOT, outlines component sourcing, including the 9-foot 4-inch fully extended whip, and emphasizes using adhesive copper tape for reliable electrical contact and conductive grease to prevent oxidation at tube connections. The construction process, while not requiring specialized tools, highlights careful assembly to ensure proper electrical conductivity and mechanical stability. The author's experience with this setup suggests its effectiveness for portable activations, offering a discreet profile compared to larger antenna systems. The design prioritizes ease of deployment and transport, making it a practical solution for operators seeking a compact yet versatile antenna for field use.
