  • Awesome video, I never would have thought of something like that. One question though, when you installed the BNC connector, why didn't you use the twin lead? isn't it a lower loss cable than coax? Still a great concept and a great video. Thanks for sharing

  • @kc0zvr well it may be! who really knows! i had a few small pieces of RG-8minfoam here and used it instead of just tossing it! it is really up to the builder what they want to use, what i did is just a suggestion of what you can do with little or no parts! i could have even kept the switch and build a antenna tuner inside the housing as well, i did think about it while i was modding this thing! tons you could do with these!

  • hiya radio ide love to be able to use an antenna like that but im about 300km away from most traffic that i listen to

    great vid as always good job

  • @whiteox11 when the weather gets nice i well be making a few outdoor antennas! so stay tuned! :-)

  • Necessity breeds invention. You have some wonderful projects on here my friend. It is indeed a pleasure and most exciting to view your many videos. I am hooked...

    What next...? We'll stay tuned... And at the edge of our seats...! God bless !!!

  • @Tobinindustrial Thanks bud, well i always got something up my sleeve, but some days i am litterlt stumped on what to do a video about! :-) but i well keep my mind active and see what other monsters i can create! lol

  • long live the HTX-202!! just can't kill them!! (not that you would want to)

  • @radionut63 Fascinating video. I wonder if i could connect my shortwave radio's long wire to an antenna like that? Would it work? Great demo.

  • do you do anything with Amateur TV?

  • Allways cool stuff!!!Thanks.

  • Very cool!! I see these antennas all over in the Salvation Army, Goodwill, and other thrift stores for pennies on the dollar!!

  • cool.
