Another way of getting nearly full dipole performance with a short antenna is to apply linear loading to your antenna. In this video from Tim (G5TM), we get a good general discussion of both the theoretical and practical applications of this antenna design. Thanks for joining us today. Aloha es 73 de Russ (KH6JRM). Here are some of Tim's observations: "An overview of the linear loading experiment findings and some information on antenna lengths for you. Here are the other videos in my Linear Loading journey: 1. Shortening a 40 meter quarter wave vertical: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmqEa... 2. Shortening a 10 metre dipole using linear loading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dcdk4... 3.
