Default Improving airband radio reception

On 24 Oct 2005 04:18:49 -0700, wrotF:

Hi

I liked the idea of the 'broom stick and coat hanger' antenna, but have
strugled on the practicalties. I went through the design he

and ended up with a very large (about 48" square) antenna that still
complained it was to short and the elements too thin!

It also doesn't explain the driven element connection details.

Help please

Cheers
Kev
