Simple Ham Radio Antennas

  Thanks to Callum (M0MCX) for showing us how to make a delta loop into a multiband HF antenna by using a homemade 4:1 balun. Callum takes us through the design, construction, and testing of this useful antenna modification.

Here are some comments from Callum (M0MCX): In this video, I make a 40m delta loop out of Kevlar cored copper braid antenna wire, with strain relief and I attach the 4:1 balun that Mike and I made last year.

  Building a mast for your HF and VHF antennas is not an easy project, but it may be less expensive if you use parts from the nearest Home Depot outlet. According to Dave Casler (KE0OG), this project should involve a few friends who will help you build the 30-foot (9.144 m) mast safely and efficiently. Dave takes us step-by-step through the entire process.  What you get is an excellent, weather resistant support for your antennas.

Here are a few comments from Dave (KE0OG): Stephen Kline sent me plans for a thirty foot mast. So I decided to give it a try. It is not an inexpensive project.
