Simple Ham Radio Antennas

  If your location is plagued by RFI or other noise sources, you may want to try this L.O.G. (Ground On Loop) receive antenna from Nick (M0NTV). The antenna is inexpensive and easy-to-make. Nick shows us how to build an easy ground-on-loop antenna that will reduce the noise fatigue common in many urban locations. In this video, Nick discusses his experiences of building, testing, and using a variety of L.O.G. receive antennas. While the antenna can be used for short-range transmissions, its primary focus is to enhance "quiet" reception of radio signals.

  One of the best ways to improve the range of your HT is to use this simple 2 meter dipole antenna used by Chuck (KK6USY). The key to this simple antenna is a simple BNC binding post with a center dipole connector. Chuck takes us through the entire process.  You don't need sophisticated tools to complete this project.  Once the antenna is made, you can add it to your emergency "go-kit" or SOTA/POTA back pack.

Here are some comments from Chuck (KK6USY): In this video I show how to make a 2 meter dipole Antenna for use with a HT for a SOTA activation. You don't even have to know how to solder!
