[Elecraft] Antenna question

Fri Oct 17 17:00:22 EDT 2014

A doublet. Center fed with either 600 ohm or 450 ohm ladder line, a 4:1 balun close to your shack and as short a length of coax from the balun to your K3 as possible. Using a tuner (either the K3 internal or an external), you will be able to work 80 through 10 meters, and possibly six meters. This sort of antenna works GREAT.

My only option is to run a wire antenna over my roof--I have about 110-120 feet to play with and I can get one end up off the ground 25 feet and the center and other end about 35 feet. Any ideas?  Or references to an antenna group that can help?  Thanks Bunches and 73
