6-(9)-Band-Wirebeam
This wire-beam has one radiator-element, feeded with 450-Ohm-Wireman-twinlead and needs an antenna-tuner. For the bands 6m, 10m, 12m, 15m, 17m and 20m bended reflector-elements are used. The gain in these bands is 4dBd (50MHz 2dBd). It is possible to use the antenna on 30m, 40m and 80m, too.
The support is a cross of 4 fibreglass-fishing-rods, each has a length of 4,50m
