Simple Ham Radio Antennas

If you need a reliable, simple, effective HF antenna for local, state, and regional operations, please consider this design from Tim Carter (W3ATB). The antenna uses Near Vertical Incident Skywave (NVIS) to maintain strong local signals.  Depending on propagation, the effective range for NVIS antennas can reach almost 300 miles/486 kilometers.

In this well-paced, tightly organized video, Tim Carter (W3ATB) shows us how to build and install a basic 80 meter NVIS (near vertical incidence skywave) antenna.  Most of the materials for this project can be found locally or in your "junk box," NVIS antennas can provide reliable, strong signals out to about 300 miles/486 km.  These antennas are perfect for local, state, and regional communications.
