Hey, Kyle,

Here is the type of "SO-239" I like to use on HF half-wave dipoles:
http://www.mfjenterprises.com/Product.php?productid=MFJ-918 or equivalent.

If you have room to add 40m legs to your 20m dipole then you can [work 15m] as well.  I've done this with homemade multiband "fan" dipoles in my daze and they worked well with a balun.  Your mileage may vary, so read the many reviews out there.  Believe some of them (or not), and experiment on your own.

I think you will be pleasantly surprised how well your homemade antennas work!

Cheers,

Pat

Kyle,

Look up SO-239 on the Internet & tell us what kind of 239 you need. I know I have some, I'll look to see what kinds I have. When come by to drop off my amp bring an image of the 239 type you need. 73 de KE3FL,

Hi all,

I need an SO-239 connector for the antenna I'm building. Anyone have any?
