just doing my foundation at the mo and OMG how do u mo the lawn. is an atu any goo for my current siro 2016

Nice one hope you pass, enjoying the hobby i hope. I placed down the wires then few weeks to let them sink into the grass/mud so i can cut the grass, some small plastic pegs are good to keep them where they should be, as for the siro 2016 it will be ok for 20m-10M but will be less effective at 20m will be good for 10m though (28MHz) good luck on your foundation

Hi Steven yes i remember you, its my homemade " Cobra" dipole i wanted an antenna for 80m but that would fit my 8m garden, i have a KZbin video about it

[@austieoutdoors9763]

yes ill check it out because i bought the uk antennas 80m endfed for 80 and its good on every band except 80 wot i wanted it for lol how long is each leg because if its any good i might try one because our gardens about 10 11m 35ft both sides so it should fit ill have a look and see thanx mate @@M0KNM-Amateur-Radio

If i remember right there was over 123ft on each side, because there was only 50mm between each fold back i had to use more wire than a normal 80m dipole. I think its a case of experimenting to see what works for you, but defo start with more than 123ft.

With all those traps and coils, it looks like a vertical dummy load to me, especially on the lower frequencies. Why not use a DX commander? Its a no compromise vertical. Just my opinion. GI0UTE

[@M0KNM-Amateur-Radio]

I did think about a DX Commander it was just someone at my local club said they got this and would i like it, ive not heard anything really bad about them

[@bigmartin]

I bought a 5btv before doing much research on them, after reading comments like yours I was really disheartened and almost just sold it on (expecting to find it’s a dummy load), thankfully I didn’t because after from 10m and 80m it’s a fantastic antenna, I’ve worked all continents on it. Broke through pile ups and just this week worked the J38R DXpedition on 40m CW running 100w and a tiny system of radials

[@M0KNM-Amateur-Radio]

Yeah ive heard nothing bad about these vertical's mine is not setup in an optimal position. But it works very well

[@IvanColeman-q3i]

Why do test with preamp on

[@M0KNM-Amateur-Radio]

Hi, didnt know i had it on until the video was posted. 73 M0KNM
