Finally put up a real #HF antenna, a #g5rv as they are called.
Its been a long time goal to put this up but its on a temporary mount now. During summer there will be time to mount it properly with wall brackets and without tethers.
You see I made this antenna with a friend but they have gotten quite ill and won't be here for much longer. So I put this mount up quickly together with my father so we could demonstrate the antenna.
Søren Kjærsgaard1/3) Hi #hamradio friends - this weekend is the international #scout #jotajoti weekend and we’re active as 5P1JAM 🙂 Antenna is a #G5RV
denisMy #zs6bkw / improved #g5rv #antenna finally broke completely- the ladder line broke off and it fell on the ground, along with the coax line. Of course, the goats found it first and destroyed it 😂 I made a new feed line with some rg8x coax and tested it with the great little #nanovna - results: 0.33 dB loss at 5Mhz, about 1 dB loss at 40Mhz for a length of 50 ft. Decent, I think.

Devin (N9DRB)My #trusdx fits nicely in a recycled Pelican case along with my #G5RV dipole. Makes a decent to-go kit. But I think I might need to make an #EFHW soon as it would be a lot smaller and easier to deploy into random trees.
