160m and 60m Inverted L project
In total 1600 ft of 14 gauge solid was used in the radial system, resulting in 16 radials each 100ft in length. Of the bunch 7 are buried in areas where vehicles and horses roam

160m inverted-L 12m long SpiderPole
It won't work as well as our verticals on longer Spiderpoles but will work a lot better than all short commercial 160m vertical antennas
Shunt-Feeding a Short Tower on 80 and 160m
160m is more of a challenge. A simple dipole doesn't fit in your typical yard. A quarter wave vertical requires quite a support structure. What we need is a effective compromise antenna

23cm Yagi Antenna building Finished antenna at 1275 MHz SWR under 1:1.5 at resonant frequency
50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135 Preamps for 144 and 430 MHz, for 50 MHz, the BFG135a is a cheap transistor and in my view rather strong. It is not easily damaged by static discharge or RF power. FG connection
Interface-for-digital-broadcasts-with-integrated-audio 4-port HUB, with a TUSB2046. With port 1 of the HUB we drive the FT232RL; with port 2 the PCM2904, furthermore, we decided to leave ports 3 and 4 free
