😂 My plans for a single HF antenna my backyard have evolved into a 5 piece antenna farm:
- Three 44' open wire fed doublets, oriented NS, NE/SW, and NW SE. I think I have enough room to do this. One of these may be slightly longer for better performance on 40m.
- (Eventually) Some sort of inverted L to get 80m
- a SlimJim very high up in a tree for VHF / UHF
I originally thought I had enough room to put up a 135 ft. doublet, but upon more careful measuring I only have about 90 ft.
