Long Wire Antenna


 

The "classic" long wire antenna is one of the easiest, cost effective ways to operate on the Amateur Radio HF bands.

Coupled with a suitable UnUn, low loss coaxial cable, and a decent ground radial or counterpoise system, this antenna will deliver hours of DX pleasure.

In this video, Denis (VE3BF), takes us through the entire antenna design, construction, use of this reliable HF antenna.
