10 Meter Attic Dipole

This was okay but appeared noisy.

10 meter attic dipole.

Mac af4ps fp 51 note. To fit this antenna in an attic space i used an inverted v configuration. 160 80 40 20 15 10 metres etc using a few simple components at a minimal cost and get great results. The infamous attic dipole.

The antenna is 68 and one half foot long one side is 23 feet long and the other is 45 5 feet long with high quality components used throughout. I later changed this by feeding the dipole twin feeder via a remote balun. More information on my website at http www fuzzthepiguy tech dipole hamradio. Inside the box is a 50 ohm 1 1 balun.

An attic coaxial cable trap dipole for 10 15 20 30 40 and 80 meters w5gi mystery antenna this antenna covers 80 to 6 meters with low feed point impedance and will work with most radios with or without an antenna tuner. This was found to be quieter and made the antenna less sensitive to frequency changes. This was installed at a previous qth i will be the first or millionth remember i m from fl to affirm that the antenna is the determining factor for success when it comes to one s station set up. I initially feed the dipole directly with a 1 1 balun and rg58 coax.

Build an hf ham radio dipole antenna it is easy to build construct and erect a dipole antenna for the hf bands. The frequency devices 10n6rdb take the half wave dipole a step further by working on two bands with one feed line. The better your antenna the more success you will have making contacts. The antenna is rated to handle 125 watts continuous and 1 500 watts pep.
