Letter Re: Constructing an Improvised CB Radio Antenna
Jim,
Regarding the recent blog article "Constructing an Improvised CB Radio
Antenna", here
is a site that has good construction info and a few graphical images of custom
built CB antennas This site by
Signal Engineering adds some antenna theory for those inclined
to learn more about CB antennas.
If you are into experimenting with antennas, I recommend getting an
antenna analyzer from MFJ. They are fairly
inexpensive (as far as test equipment go) yet will yield very helpful tuning
and optimization information. You can purchase one for use in nearly any radio
service (ham, CB, VHF/UHF. etc).- Rob at Affordable
