How to build a fan dipole antenna for Field Day
If you can't see the video, please go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAlPQbf0SV0 This is post 2632 in a continuing series of simple ham radio antennas. Here's another great antenna idea for the upcoming ARRL Field Day. Thanks to Callum McCormick (M0MCX) for this excellent tutorial on how to design, build, and test a "Fan Dipole Antenna." Here are some comments from Callum: I have built so many fan dipoles, I have now forgotten most of them! And I have never found the spacing between elements too critical either. Tune the longest one first (apparently) and it'll just work. Amazing fun. Balun Myths: https://youtu.be/q_Wn9c8HwcA Easy SWR: https://youtu.be/9GK0NAVltTE HEY!
