  • ZS6BKW Vs G5RV Antenna
    ZZS6BS6BKWKW vsvs G5RG5RVV Antenna Patterns/SWR at 40 ft Center height, 27 ft end height ~148 Degree Included Angle Compiled By: Larry James LeBlanc 2010 For the AARA Ham Radio Club Note: All graphs computed using MMANA GAL http://mmhamsoft.amateur-radio.ca/mmana/index.htm ZSZS6BK6BKWW // G5RVG5RV WhaWhatt isis it?it? In the mid-1980s, Brian Austin (ZS6BKW) ran computer analysis to develop an antenna System that, for the maximum number of HF bands possible, would permit a low Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) without antenna tuner to interface with a 50-Ohm coaxial cable as the main feed line. He identified a range of lengths which, when combined with a matching ladder line length, would provide this characteristic. According to an acknowledged expert in computer antenna design and modeling, L. B. Cebik: “Of all the G5RV antenna system cousins, the ZS6BKW antenna system has come closest to achieving the goal that is part of the G5RV mythology: a multi-band HF antenna consisting of a single wire and simple matching system to cover as many of the amateur HF bands as possible.” Both are “good” antennas and will work well in defined situations. This presentation is not designed to “bash” the G5RV, but to possibly convince you or a new ham to enjoy the benefits of lower SWR, lower loss, and greater signal strength by using the ZS6BKW version of a ladder line fed dipole. ZZSS66BBKWKW // GG55RRVV WWhhyy II liklikee itit 1. Has low swr in several ham bands at the matching point at the end of the ladder line resulting in lower losses in the coax cable.

The lower ends of the two lines should be stripped and bent over and soldered together. The resultant active line length must be 13ft. The dis- tance from the centre insulator to the ladder line should be 17.5ft. If you have a lot of wind in your area you might want to tie a 1oz lead fishing sinker to the bottom of each of the phasing lines. Alternately a string can be attached and tied to some secure point below the antenna.

  • Radio Direction Finding
    RDF and Hidden Transmitter Hunting Barrie Amateur Radio Club Fox Hunt 1 Radio Direction Finding Al Duncan – VE3RRD [email protected] v3 – March 2012 Radio direction finding or RDF has been around since before World War One. From the time of the invention of radio, there has been a desire to know from what direction a radio signal was arriving at the listener’s radio receiving antenna. Amateur Radio has found several uses for RDF: • Hunting down interfering radio signals, both accidental and malicious interference to repeaters (affecting both ham and commercial communications, including emergency services). • Helping to locate downed aircraft by DFing their emergency locator beacons (ELT). • The entertaining sport of “fox”, “bunny” or T-hunting. It is “fox hunting” that has spread through many ham radio clubs around the world as a very exciting and fun aspect of the hobby. Fox hunting can take many forms of transmitter hunting, from a person hiding within a few blocks of the starting point with his handheld and periodically making a transmission while others try to find him on foot using directional antennas; to a competition with multiple unmanned automatic transmitters scattered over a course that can be several hundred kilometers long – the entrants being required to find each transmitter in proper order with a minimum number of kilometers driven. Another variation called ARDF or radio orienteering is popular in Europe (just gaining popularity in North America) and includes jogging or running from one low power hidden transmitter to another while carrying RDF equipment in a timed race. What makes fox hunting so popular? • The social aspect of getting together with others with similar interests.

The meeting Fairgrounds. We went down the Sunday prior to claim our starts at 7:30 PM but plan on arriving early, say 7 PM to get a good spot and to watch the "Running of the Hams". No one had a seat and to chat with fellow hams. Yes, FCC exams will be held this spot the from the previous year, since the last five Shelby's month but pre-registration is required, see page 7. Bring your cash have been held in Dallas, therefore the only fair way to and check book. The program will be an auction of goodies. allocate space was to have a time the Sunday prior for all to show up. We left before 4 AM, got there before 6AM and were the 14th car in line. That was cool until just before opening Nice show, lots of goodies, I didn't even get up to the dealer time about 10 guys showed up and parked their cars and got in building, Saturday or Sunday. I was avoiding temptation. with their buddies ahead of us. Not really a problem because Things begin to clear out by 4 PM Saturday or so, and there was plenty of space and we got where we wanted.
