ON4UN's Low Band DXing 5th Edition – Antennas, Equipment, and Techniques for DXcitement on 160, 80 and 40 meters

25 Years of Low Band Success!John Devoldere, ON4UN, shares his knowledge of techniques for success on 160, 80, and 40 meters in the popular title ON4UN's Low-Band DXing.Originally published in 2010, this fifth edition of ON4UN’s Low-Band DXing includes a discussion of receiving antennas. Low-signal transformers for Beverages and other receive-only antennas are analyzed in detail, along with effective common mode filters. It includes an examination of phased arrays – with concepts such as the hybrid-fed 4-square array and opposite-voltage feed system – and dozens of propagation maps based on DX Atlas. A must-have for all amateur radio operators who use 40 meters through Top Band!Table of Contents:PropagationDXing on the Low Bands Receiving and Transmitting EquipmentAntenna Design SoftwareAntennas: General, Terms, DefinitionsThe Feed Line and the AntennaReceiving AntennasThe Dipole AntennaVertical AntennasLarge Loop AntennasPhased ArraysOther ArraysYagis and QuadsLow Band DXing from a Small GardenFrom Low Band DXing to ContestingPlease note, this is a text reprint of the book published in 2010.
