This simple indoor HF antenna got me 102 countries in a year.


 Here's another great HF antenna idea for those living in deed-restricted housing (HOA, CC&Rs).

In this video, George Brown (M5ACN) uses his attic to erect a modified fan dipole antenna.  George says this set up has given him contacts from 102 countries in 2024.

The antenna is simple, inexpensive, and very efficient.

Here are some comments from George (M5ACN):


A video about my HF amateur radio attic antenna that allowed me to work 102 countries in 12 months during 2024. A full description and technical discussion. Possible HOA antenna solution for those of you in the USA. Link to the loaded dipole calculator that I used: https://www.66pacific.com/calculators...
