[Antennas] Recommendations Please

Mon Sep 13 01:08:08 EDT 2004

Hi All,

I first of all want to thank all who suggested means of running ladder line
through the wall. I have done this successfully using parallel coaxes but I
find this really hasn't improved the performance of this antenna which is 60
feet per side of center put up in inverted vee configuration.

I am looking for recommendations. I am pleased with my Alpha Delta DX-A for
160, 80, 40 and 30 meter dx. I also have tribander for 20, 15 and 10. But,
I want to find a multiband antenna which will give me good high angle
radiation on 80 locally for nets and the like and good performance on higher
frequencies to give me some choice on 40 and 30 but most especially 17 and
12. I hope this isn't too rambling but basically, without starting a war, I
would like some recommendations of trapped or otherwise tuned and resonant
multiband antennas which might meet my needs.

I thank you in advance for any help you can give me. Very 73.

Kevin :)
