Skywire Loop Antenna
Below is a rough diagram and some photos of my skywire horizontal loop antenna. It is roughly 475 feet long and fed with 450-ohm ladder line

Echelon-Log Beverages
Two Beverages are paralleled a short distance apart, and stepped one in front of the other, can be phased to remove unwanted rearward response
Experimental Short-wave
These circuits perform very well. However, I'm still experimenting
Ferrite coupler
This is a useful device for coupling an external antenna to a radio that has no antenna jack
Flag Pennant Ewe
These antennas work best when propagation time of signals along the horizontal wires matches propagation time of the wave in space around the antenna, and when the earth or a ground system below the antenna is good

50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135 Preamps for 144 and 430 MHz, for 50 MHz, the BFG135a is a cheap transistor and in my view rather strong. It is not easily damaged by static discharge or RF power. FG connection
Interface-for-digital-broadcasts-with-integrated-audio 4-port HUB, with a TUSB2046. With port 1 of the HUB we drive the FT232RL; with port 2 the PCM2904, furthermore, we decided to leave ports 3 and 4 free
