| Below is A
drawing of A fan dipole designed for 4
bands. You should be able to achieve A
match on all 4 bands with mono band
performance. I was able to tune it on all
bands With A good bandwidth. Start with
the longest element first, achieve A good
match on it then work your way to the
shortest. The spaceing of the wires is
not criticle. You can make spacers from
any insulator.
You can use
A tuner fo all bands from 40-10, this is
A much better performer than A g5rv or
trap type dipole. Ideally 75 ohm twinlead
would be best but coax will work fine.
I have found
that this antenna out performs all that I
have tryed for swl listening.
The lenghts
below are approximate.
