40 meters band beverage antenna - The author describes his experience building and using a Beverage antenna for the 40-meter band. Despite encountering some challenges, the antenna offered some improvements in receiving stations compared to a 3-element inverted Vee antenna. The Beverage antenna showed a significant daytime signal-to-noise ratio improvement and received signals better than the Vee antenna. However, the front-to-back ratio was not ideal, and the transmit power seemed to affect the Beverage antenna. Overall, the author concludes that the Beverage antenna might be more suitable for locations with higher noise levels. The total cost of the antenna was around 30 Euros.
