Building 80m Inverted V Antenna for Restricted Space VU2XTO Design - 5

[@AniruddhaThombare]

Thanks for the video. Do let me know , what kind of LCR meter you got. I found this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXzJYmuFrc16eq8si=06jESF2PDPnF22Qc And some zoyi LCR meter in that video. This costs just around 3.2 thousands on amaz0n. Other LCR meters are beyond the costs of antennas itself! BTW, finished my first CB base station antenna today. SWRs between flat needle for 26.965 Mhz and 1.1 ish for 27.405 MHz. I have limited space, and this CB dipole antenna is already around 17/18 feet vertically. Inverted V seemed difficult as SWRs were higher because of reflections from top metal roof from which the dipole hangs as of today. I would appreciate, if you could point me in right direction to get into HAM.

Shall post on the new LCR meter when I get it within a week as I am also new to LCR meter. Please have a look at "What is Amateur Radio and How to Become a Ham Radio Operator in India?" kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4anqqSOfrmgr9U Next you may locate hams near you by searching on qrz.com. While searching, click on 'by Callsign' and change it to 'by Name/Address'. Type in your state or location and you will get hams in your locality. Welcome to the wonderful hobby of ham radio and best wishes. Jon, VU2JO

if you cant do more wire,.... you need more coil.

Yes, you are absolutely right. I am waiting to get an LCR meter and go for a new coil or increasing the number of turns in the coils. 73 Jon,VU2JO.
