Good find NR, But initially maybe too complex for your average joe. The antenna I sent you was fig 4 by the way Easiest way for CB will be for Paul and me to describe some simple to make foolproof, inexpensive wire and coax antennas (3 November 2012, 09:29)Lightspeed Wrote:(2 November 2012, 22:28)NorthernRaider Wrote: Gave me a headache. Wow, that reads badly....Early in the morning sorry. There are many experienced folk on here who can suggest simple low cost wire and coax antennas, not just Paul and me:-) Sorry guys... brain not fully in gear yet RE: Ultimate anenna basic for CB - Paul - 3 November 2012 Oohhh, that doesn't read nice at all, you need more coffee LS. NR. Biscuit tin aerial no good then? Two Diagrams for DIY stealth wire aerial. Simple and Better version. Once made, tucked into attic OR under the eves of the house. Straight out or as a VEE as shown. Dead simple. Cheap. (Love that word) The one on the left works when slung between two trees a treat. When tuning snip a LITTLE bit off both ends i.e. a cm at the most at one time. If you are going to run all 400 channels, add an extra 9" to each wire BEFORE you start tuning it in. Cheers, Paul |
