ifos for FD4 or other antenna
hello all,
i research dimension, and infos, for construction antenna LW multibandes 1.8 too 50 MHZ includes WARC bands. balun its ??? 4/1 8/1 ??? tks a lot on3vhf laurent -- www.on3vhf.be.tf locator: JO20EM |

Nevertherless its just a plain old coaxial fed windom. Greg |

Nothing new in radio, it just goes around in a circle and comes back with a new name. Watch out for the G5RV it will come back as the tuner intergrated dipole TID, since so many will forget what a G5RV is the TID will be a new miracle antenna. I could be wrong here. They already selling antennas with resistors in them, so who knows whats next. I wonder when someone will release the light globe antenna for restricted space. After all we know we can work DX with a dummy load. I thought the mushroom principle was dead in ham radio, but some still seem to believe that keeping you in the dark and feeding your BS is good marketing practice. Greg |

An OCFD is NOT a Windom and visa versa. They are two different antenna systems. Danny, K6MHE |
