Link dipole antenna

A perennial subject Anthony but one which one often brings out new ideas. You can search the reflector archives to see what was said before.

I used 7/0.1 stranded PVC hookup wire, light, never snapped in GM weather in 350 activations. Yellow stands out well. RG174 will do fine for the feeder.

For SSB 40/20/17/10. You should be able to use the 40m dipole on 15m. You may want to consider 60m.

There’s a thread about my balun! Do I need a balun? - #10 by GW7AAV :wink:
