Building an Inverted-V Antenna For The 40m Band, Part 1.

The Inverted-V antenna is great for NVIS (Near Vertical Incidence Skywave) regional radio contacts and will work also for long distances. Requiring only one mast it is very practical for portable operations. This part 1 is a FAIL because I got a very high SWR and poor reception. In part two I will figure it out, fix the antenna and make contacts. Get more content and help this site: https://www.patreon.com/radioprepper

A bit expensive but it takes many hours to print those with a 3D printer... I am always glad to give exposure to small individual enterprises.

DISCLAIMER: The Radio Prepper logo (depicting a microphone) is indeed inspired from a famous flag created in 1775. It is NOTHING BUT a symbol of freedom and independence. It does NOT imply support to any political group. It does NOT imply, represent nor support any ideology with an intent on harming anyone. Freedom means freedom from persecution based on any human trait or belief such as, non exhaustively, race, gender, religion, sexual orientation or nationality. The Radio Prepper channel is a technology and science channel with a focus on preparedness and use of radio technology for disaster relief and small group communications in times of need. It is apolitical and open to anyone sharing the same interests.
