Antennas

Antenna: A metallic apparatus for sending or receiving electromagnetic waves

I must admit.. one of my early fascinations about ham radio was with antennas. I remember makin a sic meter loop and running my IC-706 in my Brookfield, IL home on a 60 ft wide lot. Can you say "Hello Neighbor"? Try six meters on a homemade loop antenna on a porch at about gutter height. O worked some NJ, some TX and FL as I recall. I also learned my first lesson about RFI. My solution was to move to a five acre lot in the next state. Sort of... Here you'll see the antennas, permanent and temporary that I've used both at home and on trips.
