DIY Multi-Band Dipole for 20 and 40 meters
Thanks to W4AOX for this simple, inexpensive HF antenna covering the 20 and 40 meter Amateur Radio bands. The design is a variant of the popular "Fan Dipole" which has been used by radio amateurs for decades. The video takes you step-by-step through the design and building of this basic HF antenna. Here are some general comment from W4AOX: In this video I go through the steps to build a very simple, inexpensive multi band dipole antenna for the 40 and 20 meter amateur radio bands which can be used either at your home or in the field for off-grid emergency communications. Additionally, this DIY wire dipole antenna will also work on the 15, 12, 10 and 6 meter bands if your radio has an ATU or you have an external tuner. This exact DIY Dipole Antenna has allowed me to work and confirm 26 countries, all 50 U.S. states and every continent. Parts List: 1ea. 1G 1/2" PVC Box 1ea. Cover 1ea.
