2.1. Antenna length based on the following formulars: 1/2 λ dipole (feet)= 468 / frequency in Mhz. 1/2 λ dipole (meters) = 142.65 / frequency in Mhz. Full wave loop (feet) = 1005 / frequency in Mhz. Full wave loop (meters) = 306.32 / frequency in Mhz. Cut wire slightly longer for connecting insulators and pruning. 22-Jun-2007 09:30 AM.
19 sty 2017 · I want to use an end-fed wire antenna, but what would be the best length of wire for the 20m and 40m bands? Is there a way to work this out? This is assuming a tuner will be used.
The Single Wire End Fed Antenna is probably the simplest antenna to use. But when you start looking around, you find that no one can agree on what length to use. Some say any length will work, some stress odd multiples of 1/4 wavelength, while others lean toward even multiples of 1/2 wavelengths. Some say design for the lowest frequency ...
Includes calculated K and end-effect factors. This calculator is an aid for determining antenna element lengths, based on Frequency, Type (Wire or Tubing), and Diameter (AWG#, inches, mm) of the element. At the top of the calculator, enter the Frequency (1 to 30 MHz) of interest.
SWR for all lengths should typically be under 2.2:1 and in most cases will be under 1.8:1 for 160-10m which will allow most built in ATU’s to match the antenna on all bands. Initial installation should utilize a
antenna is based on any number of parameters: specifically, the frequency or band of frequencies, location, directivity, and intended power range. This paper discusses some of the more important aspects of the End Fed Half Wave (EFHW) dipole antenna. The frequency band is HF (40 meters), and the intended power is 100 watts.
For antennas over 92 feet, use 100 feet coax minimum and place choke in a position such that the total antenna wire is 70% of the effective length of the antenna. This choke position will be a good starting point for tuning your antenna on the bands you want to operate.
