In this video, I make a 40m delta loop out of Kevlar cored copper braid antenna wire, with strain relief and I attach the 4:1 balun that Mike and I made last year. Enjoy. Callum.

Hi Guys.. Few snippets here. Not live today – here’s why.. I’ll be back!
Tom (M0RMY) was busy filming me touring my shack and Mike M0MSN turned up for a visit. He’s a good laugh! Enjoy the humour. Videos are here: https://youtu.be/SozKomPjeSk and https://youtu.be/j-BugOvIYHQ – Callum (Mike and Tom)
My 6m (21 ft) pump-up Clarke Mast keeps filling up with water. I have no idea if this is normal but Tom (M0RMY) and I had some fun giving it the once-a-year maintence schedule. You can hear Tom chuckling in the background.. Here’s Tom https://youtu.be/j-BugOvIYHQ : Cheers! Callum.
