Today, we're diving into an upgrade for the Mini-Whip antenna layout. As you know, this antenna has been my trusted companion for all my radio restoration projects, delivering outstanding performance across the LW to SW bands.
However, I've faced a couple of challenges: the need to switch from the output BNC to the FM input for testing and a rather messy initial installation due to a rushed setup. To resolve these issues, I decided an antenna switch was necessary, and designing a PCB was the best way to achieve a neat and efficient solution.
With the help of PCBWay, I embarked on this project. In this video, I'll walk you through the entire process from concept to completion. I hope you find this journey both informative and enjoyable.

Notes:
1) The incorrect diode orientation mentioned in the video has been corrected in the PCB's being shared above.
2) At 07:29, I meant to say “reverse protection diode”, rather than “dc blocking capacitor”.
