Lightweight spiderbeam on telescoping mast
If you're looking for a lightweight HF antenna for the upcoming ARRL Field Day (last full weekend of June), please consider this idea from Jonathan Charles. Jonathan attached a spiderbeam to a telescoping mast in a fairly easy way and got good performance from the temporary antenna site. If you can't see the video, please go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbhP3mBO-Yk Here are some comments from Jonathan: How light can you make a spiderbeam and still make it work? This is my experiment to create a simple antenna and telescoping Mast at minimal cost for Amateur Radio Field Day. ----- Thanks for joining us today. Aloha es 73 de Russ (KH6JRM).
