“Ask the Pros” night, it’s encouraged that participation in an attempt to “Stumps the Chumps” is always welcome.
Ask the Pros night is your opportunity to bring comments or questions about electronics, communication, antennas, operating your station or just about anything “Ham Radio”.
I was asked this week by a new licensee if I had any plans or instructions for some beginner antennas.
This antenna is easy to build and can be inserted into a 20″ piece of 1″ 200psi pvc pipe.
Painted to match the color of your house and it literally disappears.
This pvc pipe is a light biege color and is not with the white or grey pvc tubing in Lowe’s or Home Depot.
I found it in the kitchen faucet fittings area, and it was only in two sizes.
You can however use the regular white pvc end caps and elbows for mounting it.
