Multi DIPOLES

Extract of “Course Radio operator Amateur”


The resonant antenna dipole only on Only one voiçi, frequency band a solution to make an antenna 4 bands or more.
In the case çi-dessous the antenna was built for 7..14… 21… and 28Mhz.
Nothing prevents you according to the place you have to calculate it for other frequencies.
You will low find a table with calculations already carried out.

Construction does not raise any difficulty.
Material side, nothing in particular.

The radiant bits, 4 are consisted TWO lines of an impedance of 300 ohms, called “Twin-lead”.
The 2 lines are maintained by insulating matter spacers.
They will be cut in their millieu and the bits will be fed by a coaxial line of 75 ohms.
Space in the center is of 2cms approximately.
Calculations concerning the lengths are carried out as for a dipole.
