End fed halfwave antenna sloper vs flat horizontal orientation
If you can't see the video, please insert this title URL into your browser search box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgEtQOS8mY0 This is post 2533 in a continuing series of simple ham radio antennas. According to Kevin Loughin (KB9RLW), you can learn a lot about antennas with some simple experiments. In this video, Kevin compares the performance of an end fed halfwave sloper antenna with a conventional flat horizontal dipole antenna. Each antenna has its advantages, depending on the space available, ground conditions, deed restrictions, and local interference levels. Here are some comments from Kevin: I'm not an antenna expert, I'm just sharing my observations and my own speculation. Learning more about the end fed half wave antenna with an experiment.
