This amazing discovery was highlighted and proven to work by a Caribbean station many years ago. They built one for 20m band and pointed it towards North America. I promise to get around to building this and also pointing at NA. If I had the room, a certain winner for 80m – but 40m would also be great fun! It’s a PAIR of parasitic verticals, phased together – so very easy to make. See what you think! Callum.

My initial thoughts on the Morse code paddle that comes with the Elecraft #KH1. I should probably do a full review and add it to my series.

I designed and built a heavy duty dipole antenna, but I was concerned that the mounting method I used would cause a problem. So I tested it using this tool that you may not know about.
