Creating a Folded Inverted Vee Antenna for the 80 Meter Amateur Radio Band
Thanks to Ralph Gable of "Electronics for the Inquisitive Experimenter" video channel for this step-by-step method of building a folded inverted Vee antenna for the 80 Meter Amateur Radio Band. Ralph says the procedure works for any HF band you choose. If you can't see the video, please insert this title URL into your browser search box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McbDL1GxbqI Here are some comments from Ralph: In this video I will be showing you how I created a Folded Inverted-Vee Antenna for the 3.5 to 4.0 MHz Amateur Radio 80 meter band. I will walk you through the whole process so you can create your own for any frequency you choose. Why do this? A Folded Dipole or Folded Inverted-Vee antenna has significantly wider bandwidth than its non-folded cousins. I wanted to increase the bandwidth of my antenna to cover more of the 80m band.
