160/80/40 M Vertical

[K5DNL]

Hello all,

Had to get my 2 cents worth in.

My HomeBrew vertical is 60 ft of 4 inch Irrigation tubing
32 radials with HomeBrew matching network at the base.
It's a compromise antenna on 160M , but works.

Thanks for the bandwidth

Ken,

This vertical sounds interesting. Would you be willing to email me some details and possibly some pictures directly? I currently am using a Hustler BTV series and am considering a change when the weather breaks.

Thanks,

  Those looking for a 160/80/40 meter antenna might try googling for the
"BC Trapper" antenna.

A vertical for 40 and 80 and an inverted L for 160.  It is detailed in
the UN4UN Low Band DXing book.
