| 18,24MHz Fan Top Antenna Height Construction (2025/02/17) | ||
|---|---|---|
| 18,24MHz Fan-out Dipole Antenna The 18MHz element is a pulley attached to the roof of a garage, about 5m high. The 24MHz element is only about 4m high. As expected, the flight performance of the 24MH was poor, so I decided to set up a pole.  |
||
| I bought a 1 1/4 inch metal pipe from Clarin Hardware for 1,131 pesos (approximately 3,000 yen). I also bought a 35m rope for 210 pesos (about 550 yen).  |
||
I took it to a nearby tricycle factory and had them weld the rebar to hang the pulley. |
||
| The cost of rebar and welding work was 100 pesos (about 265 yen). I was able to purchase the hardware and request welding by myself. When my pronunciation is poor and people can't understand me, I always have to rely on Google Translate...  |
||
| I tied it to the bed of a Mitsubishi Strada with a rope and carried it. The length of the pipe is 6m  |
||
| Welding work I had a 6m pipe attached to a 3m pole. The pipe is 9m high. The cost of welding the pipes is 400 pesos (approximately 1,060 yen). Total 500 pesos (1,325 yen)  |
||
The 24MHz element, which was at roof height, is now 9m above ground level. |
||
| Up until now, when I called out CQ on 24MHz, it was a miss, and when I called, there was almost no response. Since we increased the height above ground to 9m, we have been getting quite a few calls. (Maybe the conditions were just good today?) I wish I could make it higher, but I'll have to put up with this for now. Next, I would like to consider installing a 28MHz antenna and a 3.5MHz antenna.  |
