		<description><![CDATA[In a previous post I wrote that building a half wave antenna for 20m is on my todo list. The reason for this that my groundplane needs counterpoises or radials. For the half wave or end fed this is not needed. That is what people usually say. A few days ago I started building one. For the [...]]]></description>

We sold our appartment and bought a house with a small garden. Early March we were alerted by friends that there was a house for sale in their street. We know about 5 families [...]]]></description>

I don&#8217;t use the antenna anymore (collecting dust in the basement) but the article will stay here for informational purposes. I live in an appartment and don&#8217;t have the space to put up a large antenna for my Kenwood R1000 receiver. I knew [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This post is taken from my old website. I&#8217;m still dismantling that site. What is PMR446 anyway ? PMR446 stands for Personal Mobile Radio and is a license free radio in the 446 MHz UHF band. That is about 6 Mhz above the 70cm amateur radio band. There are 8 channels starting at 446.00625 MHz [...]]]></description>

Try not to dismantle the whole shack for antenna testing again. First thing I did at my parents is to solder all amp connections. Then assembled [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With my vertical antenna I can listen to 40 and 80 meters, but we all know that is not the best setup. I could transmit with it by using an antennatuner. Using a tuner near the transceiver with a coax fed too short antenna is not the solution. Losses are building up in the tuner and [...]]]></description>

I used cheap fishing rods, costing 4 to 5 euro each, from a known sports hardware shop. The funny thing was when I asked the sales person if the rods contain carbon fibers he mentioned that I&#8217;m not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My homebrew HF multiband antenna tipped over during a storm in december 2007. Not a real surprise because the mount was too small to handle the antenna, despite the weight of 8 concrete tiles. I remember that during that evening I was listening to some PSK31 signals on 20m and suddenly they disappeared. A quick [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A cantenna is a directional waveguide antenna for long-range Wi-Fi used to increase the range of (or snoop on) a wireless network. Although the original design was based on a Pringles potato chip can, a cantenna can be made from various cans/bottles. These include antennas on both the ground and antennas heightened by means of [...]]]></description>
