Antennas
In my new home I no longer have tall trees around. I have one lonely willow at the edge of the lake. I now have a classic Cebik 44' doublet at about 35 feet for 10-40 meters and a sloping vertical 57 foot wire with ground radials for 30 - 160 meters. Both are connected to an remotely located MFJ 993 tuner with a tuner control head back in the shack. I also have a box with relays at the base of the vertical that lets me insert an air wound inductor for 160 meters and disconnects and grounds the antenna when the power is off.
Old home: My HF antennas are all wires in trees.
G5RV
Classic 102' long horizontal antenna at 55' up. Tunes 10m - 80m, but has many lobed pattern on higher bands.
44' Vertical Doublet
Vertical antenna for 10m to 30m. 300 ohm window line fed. Also tunes on 40m, but not my first choice. 125% of the wavelength (12.5 m (44') for 10 m) is as long as you can go before the secondary lobes become larger than the primary lobes. Base is 15' up.
Vertical Doublet with capacity hats
Primary low band antenna, resonant at 1.9 MHz with secondary radiator at 7.1 MHz. The 70' vertical radiators are center fed. One is cut for 40m, the other has 57' linear loaded hats top and bottom. The bottom is hat 10' above the ground. The entire antenna is made from window line and is fed by 300 ohm window line.
Antenna feeds
The verticals are feed by window line to a homemade antenna switch on the roof of the house. A single window line runs back to a DX Engineering 1:1 balun that feeds 3 feet of coax that runs through the exterior wall to the tuner. Other antenna's coax also come through the same opening, which is covered by a standard plastic electrical service entrance stuffed with fiberglass insulation.
VHF/UHF
An Arrow 2m/70cm J pole is mounted on a mast on the chimney.
