Antennas : 20M

• W5GI Mystery Antenna  ^pop - W5GI Mystery Antenna is a multi-band wire antenna that performs exceptionally well even though it confounds antenna modeling software. This antenna covers 80 to 6 meters with low feed point impedance and will work with most radios, with or without an antenna tuner. It is approximately 100 feet long, can handle the legal limit, and is easy and inexpensive to build. It is similar to a G5RV but a much better performer especially on 20 meters.

• Beverage Transformers for HF Receiving Antennas - This FAQ covers building and buying transformers for loop-on-ground and Beverage antennas. Building one uses ferrite cores and thin wire. Buying is an option, with the DX Engineering BFS-1 being recommended. These transformers isolate the antenna from the cable to prevent unwanted signal pickup.

• Microvert Antenna for 40m by ON7IR - A mircovert antenna assembled for the 40m version of the DL7PE antenna. A one meter long aluminum tube with 24mm diameter is used for the base (element 1) and a 50cm aluminum tube with 20mm diameter for element 2 (the extention). A pvc pipe, 34cm long and with a diameter of 38mm, is used to wind the coil on (1mm enamelled copper wire).

• A Compact and Stealthy Field Portable Antenna - In the quest for an ideal field portable antenna, the author recounts experiments involving various wire configurations. While a previous candidate, a 41ft random wire, proved effective but lacked stealth, the search led to a surprising rediscovery of a design previously rejected—the Rybakov Antenna. With a focus on simplicity, rapid deployment, and multiband capability, the author explores the versatility of a 26ft Rybakov, avoiding the halfwave trap. The article delves into the antenna's performance and its potential as a discreet, resonant solution for field operations, addressing the challenges encountered during a POTA activation. Additionally, the Unun/Balun design used in conjunction with the Rybakov Antenna is discussed, providing insights into achieving a balanced system.
