NEW The Everything Antenna
The Everything
"The Everything" is the newest antenna creation, and it is a 49:1, 9:1, 4:1, 1:1 in one. These are the 4 most common field antennas/transformers used in the field. This is a swiss army knife of antennas to be used in a wide variety of configurations. This is one simple, packable option that can take the place of 4 different systems. Take the Everything and some wire and use the configuration that best fits your situation once in the field. See the build instructions page for more information
The Dually & The Dually 2.0
This antenna build is two sided, and once complete you will have two full antennas in one. The 49:1 side can be used for end fed resonant antennas, and the 9:1 side can be use for end fed random wire antennas for use over various HF bands with the use of a tuner. I created this antenna with portability and flexibility in mind.
I by no means have all the technical knowledge when it comes to antennas, but I understand enough to experiment. I had an Idea that I played around with. This antenna was an experiment that I had great results with, so figured I would offer it up as a new unique offering for hams looking for an antenna with more options in one package.
I use this antenna mostly as a sloper with the transformer down low, but there are many different configurations. I don't have all the technical information here. Ultimately it's a 49:1 and a 9:1 unun. You can find tons of info online on these antennas for what wire lengths to use and configuration possibilities.
But if you want to keep it simple for now. you can use it as a sloper with these approximate lengths of antenna wire with a 50ft length of coax with a choke close to the radio.
49:1 side approximate antenna lengths - 33ft, or 65ft
9:1 side approximate antenna lengths - 29ft, or 41ft
Power - I know the antenna will take 100 watts SSB. I do not know for sure how much it can handle CW and digital
