A portable dualband dipole robust and compact antenna usable for horizontal and vertical polarisation by ON6MU

Dual Band VHF/UHF Slim Jim Antenna project

Antenna was designed for SO-50 satellite operation but can be used for any VHF/UHF activity. It's a mix of a Moxon Antenna and a Yagi antenna. It has gains 4 dBd on 2m and 6.5 dBd on 70cm bands and it is fed via single 50 Ohm cable.

A homemade VHF/UHF vertical antenna made essentially with RG58 coax cable, with a 9 turns choke balun to prevent the shield acting as a RF Radiator.

BeaconSpot.uk provides an accurate, real-time picture of microwave and VHF/UHF beacons operating across Europe, alongside a worldwide listing of 6-meter beacons. The platform allows users to retrieve detailed data for individual beacons, facilitating in-depth analysis of signal characteristics and propagation paths. Interactive maps visualize beacon distribution by frequency band and display spot coverage for each station, offering a clear geographical overview of active beacons. The system integrates real-time DXCluster spots, sourced from contributors like Alain, ON4KST, and Pascal, F5LEN, and enables users to submit outgoing spots directly to the DXCluster. Beacon keepers can manage their beacon data, receive email alerts upon being spotted, and track their station's ODX (Outstanding DX) records. For every received spot, the distance to the beacon is automatically calculated and displayed, aiding propagation studies.

This group is for support and discussion of the Baofeng UV-3R micro dual band VHF/UHF radio.

Customers can find components for building robust station infrastructure, ensuring signal integrity across various frequency bands. The platform facilitates procurement of essential parts for new builds or upgrades, supporting reliable RF system performance.

A concept to use common, low-cost parts to mount a VHF/UHF dual-band antenna to help people who have HOA restrictions, are renters, or desire low-visibility characteristics get on the air.

Icom ID-880 VHF/UHF dual band transceiver reviews on eham.net

This article describes the construction of a simple dual-band VHF/UHF end-fed vertical dipole antenna designed for local repeater access using an Icom IC-705 radio. Built from a single piece of RG58U coaxial cable, the antenna consists of a 460mm exposed inner conductor, 450mm of intact coax, and a 9-turn choke balun wound on a 27mm former. Mounted on a 10m Spiderpole, the antenna achieves excellent SWR readings (<1.2:1 on 2m, <1.5:1 on 70cm) and provides effective coverage of local repeaters with unexpected reach into distant locations.
