Building a 12m/17m fan dipole for ham radio.

by kc4mcq | Posted on


 Thanks to the sun reaching solar maximum, DX oportunites on the 12 meter (24.89 MHz-24.98 MHz) and 17 meter (18.068 MHz-18.168 MHz) ham bands are improving daily.

In this video from Chris (K2CJB), we see how easy it is to design, build, test, and use a fan dipole for these upper HF bands.
