40m 1/2 wave coaxial sleeve antenna
Has anyone tried building a 1/2 wave coaxial sleeve antenna for 40m? I have
a large tree with a branch at 70' and i thought i'd pull the antenna up with
a rope. Should i make the sleeve out of copper pipe? A 1/2 wave vertical
would be a nice antenna for 40m and i thought a coaxial sleeve antenna would
give me a great feed impedance. Any thoughts? The coax are 100' of RG8.
