Ham Radio HF wire antenna field expedient splicing - Tech Tips. Short video on something overlooked by many - how to splice two wires together with minimal gear and how to make that...
I'm pretty good at repairing broken regular coax, but I recently had an RG-174 cut and it's too small for me to solder the center wire and keep the braid away from it. What's a good way to do this? Edits for clarity: this is for a feedline to an antenna, using for HF signals, so the repair method is important in keeping a clean signal.
30 lis 2019 · While working on a doublet antenna video, I thought I should share the way I splice wires for strength when lengthening antennas. Very strong, it should ho...
11 paź 2023 · DIY Process to Splice an Antenna Wire Together. Step 1: First, strip about 1/2 inch of insulation from the end of each wire. Step 2: Then, twist the exposed wires together tightly. Note: Be careful not to over-twist the wires, as this can damage them.
26 mar 2023 · Wrap some thin wire around the splice to hold it while you solder it. The driven element is a bit different. Start with the wire at least 20 cm ( 8 inches ) longer than the final circumference, to allow for connections at the feedpoint.
How to join antenna wire together. They used to call this the “AT&T Wiremans Join” but frankly, it’s the best way of joining wire together anyway. If you are joining insulated wire, first strip away about an inch of insulation of both ends.
Most signal splitters are based on a fundamental building block which is a transformer-like device that accepts a single signal stream and splits it into two identical parts that are each (by the laws of physics) diminished in strength by about 3 dB, minimum.
