Top Band Vertical Small Garden/Backyard


Thanks to Mike (M0MSN) for this 160 meter modification to the popular "DX Commander" multiband HF vertical antenna.  The key to this project is the addition of a "home brew" 160 meter coil.

Here are some comments from Mike (M0MSN):

HAM RADIO: Top Band Vertical Small Garden /Back Yard - 160M band DX Commander MOD. Base loading Coil for 160M Top Band. You asked me to build a small garden/ back yard Antenna for the 160M band so I used the DX Commander as the starting point. turn your 80M inverted L into a Top band antenna or use your 40M vertical. Please note that both antennas are a compromise and will not work as well as a full size antenna build for the bands. Still have fun and give it a go... Please subscribe and like. Cheers and Many thanks for watching Mike - M0MSN P.S. do not take my word for it, give it a go for yourself. DX Commander
