In this episode, I show you how I build the LT. Dude antenna, a knockoff of the DX Commander that will get you 5 bands, maybe more:
40m 1/4 wave
20m 1/4 wave
17m 1/4 wave
15m 3/4 wave
10m 1/4 wave
______
Bands that don't look so good:
6m
2m
1.25m
Standing Wave Ratio is higher (2.00ish) and impedance is low.
The 3d printed plans for the LT Dude will be available in the near future. Check my Thingiverse (HamRadioDude) for the files. I will update this link also.
