Field strength measurements were made a few wavelengths away and many wavelengths away from the quads. No difference in the radiated field of either could be found. According to Bill Orr in his book about cubical quads, a two-element cubical quad is equal to a pair of 2-element beams; one is stacked over the other a quarter-wavelength. Introducing the "All-Band" Doublet: What the Student and the Instructor Should Keep in Mind L. B. Cebik, W4RNL. Perhaps too many new hams embarking on their first HF adventures think only of resonant dipoles fed with coaxial cable and plugged .

A choke balun made of coax is most effective when a single layer is close-wound on a form, such as 4in. plastic drain pipe or 6in. "schedule 40" PVC pipe. A Prototype Coax RF Choke. The prototype uses a short length of 4 in. diameter PVC pipe (4 3/16 outside diameter). One turn of RG8X will be 14 inches long on the PVC form. Antenna Terminology Defined Mobile Mark, Inc. is a leading antenna manufacturing company and supplier of antennas to wireless companies throughout the world. Antenna theory and antenna terminology can seem complicated to the uninitiated. A lot goes into designing antennas but with a little bit of guidance and explanation, antenna users (network. An antenna (plural antennae or antennas), or aerial, is an electrical device which converts electric power into radio waves, and vice versa. It is usually used with a radio transmitter or radio transmission, a radio transmitter supplies an electric current oscillating at radio frequency (i.e. a high frequency alternating current (AC)) to the antenna's terminals, and the .

• The center conductor of the feeding coaxial cable is connected to one side of the slot, and the outside conductor of the cable - to the other side of the slot. – The slot length is some (λ/2) for the slot antenna and (λ/4) long for the INF antenna. • The INF and the slot antennas behave Size: 1MB. Maintained in an atmosphere of SF6, the aerial is capable of withstanding bipolar voltage peak to peak amplitudes of kV for a few nanoseconds (τ). The length of the antenna, L, is defined by the maximum pulse width to be radiated: L ≈ τ ⋅ c / 2 (where c is the speed of light).Cited by: Coaxial cable with holes in the outer insulation, severe bends, or door, trunk or hood caused pinches will cause performance problems. Treat your coax with care. If you live in an area where rain and/or sleet is common, wipe your antenna down with a rag that has been coated with WD, Armor-All, Pledge, light oil, etc.
