Ham Radio HF/VHF Antenna Lengths Chart. Here is a handy chart for determing 1/4 wave verticals, 1/2 wave dipoles, and full wave loop lengths. All antenna lengths in the information below are in feet and are the results based on the standard formula of 468 / FMhz = total length in feet.
0.5. 1.0. 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.
5 cze 2021 · Antenna Calculator for HF Antennas. Here is a simple antenna calculator for two popular forms of ham radio HF wire antennas: the horizontal dipole and the inverted "V". (Updated June 5, 2021)
1 wrz 2021 · This chart serves as an aid in trimming the length of HF antennas. The chart estimates, over the length of an approximate quarter wavelength, the required change in length to shift the fundamental antenna resonance by a specific amount of kHz.

5 lut 2021 · I want to upgrade the stock antenna on my Baofeng uv-5r for which I mostly use the 2 meter band. The quarter wavelength for this band is about 19.2 inches, but when I look for antennas, they are typically 15.6 or 7.5, or some other seemingly random number of inches.
This chart was developed after a brief reference to the various antenna hand books in the shack, and a quick refresher on the current amateur frequencies, es pecially in the new 12, 15, and 30 meter WARC bands.
