Title: 1/4 wave vertical for 40
Post by: YD1BOR / G0LHF on August 02, 2025, 14:59:49 UTC
I have just bought a 12 meter long fishing pole, an item that will be ideal to hold up a 1/4 wave vertical for 40.
I have yet to work out  the dimensions for the radiating element and ground wires, but playing with it might well be interesting.

Has anyone tried an aerial of that sort, and how did you do?
