Hamstick dipole attic.

Mfj 347 hamstick dipole mount kit for any 2 hamsticks as a base 4 5 out of 5 stars 35. Only 8 left in stock order soon. The infamous attic dipole. While using one mobile whip by itself requires a good ground or counterpoise usually the car body a pair can be operated as a dipole.

Hamstick dipoles isolate one for each band 80 mtr pair could be any band must be in pairs best to tune up on a vehicle could be mounted in attic or in back yard out of sight coax to station 40 mtr pair. The better your antenna the more success you will have making contacts. Also the dipole elevation can affect the tuning swr as well. A coaxial cable trap dipole antenna installed in the attic provides a surprisingly effective solution to hf operation on the 10 15 20 30 40 and 80 meter amateur bands at a qth with restrictive covenants that prohibit outside antennas.

While using one mobile whip by itself requires a good ground or counterpoise usually the car body a pair can be operated as a dipole. I ve used the hamstick dipole on 20 meters quite a bit and recall that i had to do some fiddling to the the dipole length to get it correct. Used with mfj 20m hamstick dipole setup works very good for size many contacts k1wj. Lastly make note of the dipole mounting assembly.

Stringing ground radials or using a ground rod in the field or the attic becomes increasingly difficult. Shark antennas s f20 mono band hf 20 meter mobile vertical antenna with 3 8x24 threads handles 250w max. Stringing ground radials or using a ground rod in the field or the attic becomes increasingly difficult. Mac af4ps fp 51 note.

When i put up outside on tower standoff had noise irratic swr especially with any wind. Isolated down to the brass looking so 239 type fitting.
