I was reading up on dipoles and building antennas online and in my boredom I built this from scraps except for the ladder line and insulators. Some stuff from work, some stuff from around the house, a bit of mail order stuff and there is, theoretically, a ZS6BKW. I take it with when I travel to CT and was very pleased with its performance during ARRL Field Day 2022.

My one gripe, and particular of being the first antenna I ever built, is that I crimped the wires on the ends so I cannot adjust it and currently on 40/20 it is resonant in the CW portion of the bands and not in the SSB portions which is where I’d want it.

Wanna build your own?
