Lately, I’ve been wishing that I had a better way to get out on 20-meters, 40-meters, and 75-meters. The 75- and 40-meters are a bit long for the small amount of space that I have available to hide an antenna (local residential, contractual, restrictions), but I did some measuring around, and I think I found an ok spot to try to string a dipole!
Check out these drawings I made late at night (mind I’m no artist).
Probably hard to conceptualize my diagram in your mind, but I have a deck over a patio outside of the “Shack.” There are 4 beams that support the deck that I believe I can string the dipole from! I will try to get the supplies and cut this to length very carefully–I don’t have an antenna tuner. I’m hoping I can also tune on 10-meters, as a full wave dipole. I will probably post pictures and such on the Projects page as I go.
