Ham Radio-An end-fed half wave cage antenna
If you can't see the video, please insert this title URL into your browser search box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzxyjWyiuC4 This is post 2604 in a continuing series of simple ham radio antennas. Thanks to Kevin Loughin (KB9RLW) for this fascinating comparison between a single wire antenna and a "classic" cage dipole. This antenna was designed for the 20m and 10m Amateur Radio Bands. According to Kevin, the cage antenna was more broadbanded than the simple wire antenna--something you may need for a home or portable ham station antenna. Here are some comments from Kevin: Another comparison between a single wire and a cage arrangement. This time on the end fed half wave antenna.
