I have never once built a home-brew aluminum antenna. Readers of this blog will attest to my affection for antennas made from locally available copper. Now was as good a time as any to make this antenna the traditional way.http://youtube.com/c/HamRadioDX?sub_c... ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 0:00 Simple HF Antennas with Tim G5TM | Easy to Build #YTHF21 1:06 Introducing Tim G5TM If you have antenna restrictions, neighbors that tend to complain about antennas, simply want to operate without drawing attention…or you want a lightweight multi-band antenna to use in portable or emergency situations, the CHV-5X is a great choice.
Feedpoint where you need it– The bottom feedpoint is more convenient than traditional center-fed half-wave vertical dipoles… such as the “I” styles. bent into a shallow inverted U, and two support poles a bit taller than a quarter wavelength each. Gain is broadside to the wire so consider its orientation Want something that doubles as an end-fed half wavelength on 7 MHz? The good news is that you can get half-square type DX performance with just one support pole if you set the antenna up as an end-fed full wavelength inverted vee. Grab 20 - 22 metres of wire, an 8 or 9 metre pole, The Chameleon Antennas are made with the finest material available. They can be used for multiple purposes such as Mobile, Portable, Base station, Marine, EMCOMM, MARS/CAP, ARES, SATERN, RACES, First Responders, Emergency Preparedness, Skywarn, Military & Government communications and much more.As ham radio enthusiasts, we recognize that portable operation can be an enjoyable experience, although it comes with its unique set of challenges. Recently, I found myself in a conversation with a newly licensed ham, who posed the age-old question: “What’s the best HF antenna for portable operation?” This question isn’t easy to answer, as it hinges on various factors, such as your radio’s purpose, the required frequency coverage, and your proximity to potential signal-obstructing obstacles (yes, trees, we mean you!). But fear not, we’ll work together to find the ideal portable HF vertical antenna to meet your needs. When using high power (100 watts or so), the exposed metal on the radio and connected equipment may have RF “hot spots”. This is normal. Hot spots are very uncomfortable to the touch but are usually not a serious safety hazard at the standard 100 watt power level. Hot spots can be mitigated somewhat by a good ground and/or counterpoise. I carried out a survey in early 2014 to try to discover which portable HF antenna was most popular. Just over 300 people responded. They were asked to choose their "favourite portable antenna" from:
