An 80-10 end-fed half-wave antenna can be a very good performing part of an HF station. But its performance depends heavily on a well-designed and carefully constructed 49:1 unun, which matches the long wire impedance to within tuning range of operation. But the perfor-mance of an end-fed antenna is also very dependent on height above ground.
This project assembles a 49:1 ferrite-core (“FT”) type #43 transformer that matches 50 ohm input to 2500 ohm end fed antenna. It is optimized for 3.5/7/10/14 MHz but will work reasonably well on all
22 lut 2021 · WX1MAR and I brought the DIY 49:1 unun with a borrowed antenna radiator wire cut for 20M half-wavelength to Ashland State Park K-2417 in Massachusetts for a Parks-on-the-Air (POTA) activation. We hoisted the free end of the antenna wire approximately 30 feet into a tree.

Step 1: Install PCB onto connector. Clip two of the adjacent ground lugs off of the BNC connector and position the PCB onto the BNC. Orient the board so the single rectangular solder pad on the “K6ARK EZ Match” text is in contact with the BNC center pin conductor.
The 49:1 impedance transformer ( or 64:1 ) will help you bring down the high impedance of your resonant EFHW antenna to almost 50 Ohm. Let’s have a look at a few details on how to build a 49:1, or a 64:1 impedance transformer.
4 sie 2020 · This is the page on the End-Fed Half-Wave antenna with a 49:1 transformer. This is a multiband antenna without the need for any tuner (which is the best type of antenna).
