40m Vertical Antenna

Doing a bit of work on the antenna. Well, I took the 3 radials off that were way to short that I used portable and added 9 radials that are 10m long. That improved things a lot. Now that I am happy with how its working, the next step will be to add another 9 radials and talk down my portable antenna and replace it with a aluminum radiator and give it a little tune.

SWR is acceptable, its a bit long, by the usable part of the band is all under 2:1 SWR so eat the loss and enjoy doing radio 🙂

That will work 🙂

So will that.
