Build your own custom cases: Give your projects a profession look with custom-built cases. Robert Grossblatt: 54/4: April 1983 VLF-HF active antennas: Part 3. These short-length antennas are easy to build and offer surprisingly good performance. R. W. Burhans: 54/4: April 1983 Spot-a-matic: An illuminating project. Robert Grossblatt: 54/4 ...
Homebrew is an amateur radio slang term for home-built, noncommercial radio equipment. [1] Design and construction of equipment from first principles is valued by amateur radio hobbyists, known as "hams", for educational value, and to allow experimentation and development of techniques or levels of performance not readily available as commercial products.
In electronics, an antenna amplifier (also: aerial amplifier or booster) is a device that amplifies an antenna signal, usually into an output with the same impedance as the input impedance. Typically 75 ohm for coaxial cable and 300 ohm for twin-lead cable. An antenna amplifier boosts a radio signal considerably for devices that receive radio ...
An ideal “broadband” shortwave antenna would work continuously across much of, if not all of, the shortwave spectrum with good radiation efficiency and minimal compromise of the radiation pattern. Most practical broadband antennas compromise on one of the above: Either they only work on a few relatively narrow slices of the HF radio ...
LNA-100 Boost Antenna Amplifier. If you’re looking for an antenna amplifier that's easy to set up and minimizes wires in your house, the Winegard LNA-100 Boost is an ideal choice.
For transmissions in the shortwave range, there is little to be gained by raising the antenna more than a half to three quarters of a wavelength above ground level, and at lower frequencies and longer wavelengths, the height becomes infeasibly great (greater than 85 metres (279 ft)). Shortwave transmitters rarely use masts taller than about 100 ...
