Thanks Dave, for another informative and well written article.
I really appreciate that you take the time to write your articles, rather than just cobble-together a quick video.

 

Here are a couple of extra photos that were meant for the article ! Check these out. Dave, W7DGJ

Thank you, that is a nice comment. You're right about the effort involved in writing something, that's for sure. Dave

 

Here are some additional photos that go with this article. Comments, suggestions, gripes . . . post 'em here! Dave, W7DGJ

 

Two more photos . . .

 

Great article and thanks for writing with photos. I love my cobweb and I love my rig expert analyzer. Now I need that antenna switch!

 

Great to hear from another cobweb owner! I look forward to getting more experience with it, Dave

 

Regional Conflicts? wake up, there's a war going on in Europe...

 

Frank, clearly, you haven't read my article. There's no way that I am minimizing anything. If you haven't noticed, this is a ham radio column and not an editorial about the war. Dave, W7DGJ

 

It is really good on 20-10. I added the 50mhz but it the swr changes bad if it rains. I bought the 40-30 kit but I haven't installed it yet.

 

Thanks, I've been using it on 10 regularly, as 10M has been kinda hot as I'm sure you've noticed!

 

Possibly a little beyond Eastern Europe for some perhaps...



... but Lab599 TX-500 could be a worthy inclusion here?

Yes, always wanted to review one of these. I understand the Russians are now building these in Saudi Arabia or some other unusual location? Thanks!

 

... nomination for Goran YU1CF in Serbia, very nicely optimized yagis, and other VHF+ parts. https://antennas-amplifiers.com/

 

Thanks for an interesting and informative article.
I love my friends at Rig Expert, and wondered how they were making out.
Glad to hear they landed on their feet.

Seems like your article digressed into a cobweb(b) article.
But that's good.
I never thought much of them, but now I think I may build one!
I computed the spreaders as being about 6 feet, right?

Thanks again for your work producing such good stuff.
73,

David, K2WPM

P.S., Don't forget Acom in Sofia...
