Damn where are you? You go out here in Michigan on New Years you may freeze to death...I lived in Texas for many years and wasnt that nice...let me guess. South Florida, South Texas, Hawaii, Southern California
question- i have a rf fm transmitter that is set to 89.3 fm. i did the calculations already and i know that each side of my dipole has to be 2 feet.but my main question is instead of using wires,can i use to pieces of copper pipe and solder my transmission line to them. its all still metal right? lemme know.once again its for regular fm radio.
I used some copper water pipes for two dipoles that I made and they work very well. I think most metals can be used but copper is very conductive and easy to cut.
Good luck. I love building wire antennas. when you find your favorite swl band. You might try the loop anenna as they can null noise and also inhance the signal. Thanks for the clip. Please keep us informed.
