Linear Array Theory- Part I : by: Prof. Natalia K. Nikolova

 

5-26

Dear friends, I would like to give to you an interesting and reliable antenna theory. Hours searching in the web gave me lots theoretical information about antennas. Really, at first I did not know what information to chose for ANTENTOP.

Now I want to present to you one more very interesting Lecture - it is LECTURE 15: Linear Array Theory- Part I

Linear arrays: the two-element array; the N-element array with
uniform amplitude and spacing; broad - side array; end-fire array;
phased array …

Modifications for the Multiband UB5UG Antenna : by: Oleg Safiullin, Kazan, UA4PA: Credit Line: Radio # 9, 1969


 

27- 30

 

 

Anyway any ham wants to have a separate antenna for each of HF-Bands. But, very often the person has only one antenna that compromised for several bands. The same is for the author of the article. He tested lots compromised antennas. However the best one was the Five Band Antenna designed by UB5UG.

The antenna may be modified with some improving in the overall antenna performance. See below the improvements...

Vertical Antenna for the 20-, 15-, 10- meter Bands
(Antenna UW4HW)

by: Yuri Matiychenko, UW4HW: Credit Line: Radio # 12, 1968, p.:21

 

 

41- 42

 

 

Classical Vertical Antenna (aka Ground Plane Antenna) without additional tuning works satisfactory only at one amateur band. However, so called “thick” antennas (looks like three-dimensional geometrical figure) could work with good SWR in the frequencies range F1/F2= 3, where, F1- high working frequency, F2- lower working frequency...

Broadband Sloper for the 80- meter Band: by: Vladimir Fursenko, UA6CA: Credit Line: http://www.cqham.ru/ant80.htm

The antenna works with good SWR at the frequencies 3.500- 4.000- kHz. All antennas, what I made before (there were I.Vs., dipoles and slopers) did not work at such wide band. The antenna has input impedance 75- Ohm. It allows use a chip TV coaxial cable for the feeding of the antenna. The 75- Ohm coaxial as usual is matched well with the 50- Ohm output of the transceiver...

Three- Rod Vertical Ground Plane Antenna for the 10- meter Band: by: DM3SF: Credit Line: Funkamateur # 8, 1968.

Input impedance for a classical Vertical Ground Plane Antenna is 30… 33- Ohm. For matching of the input impedance with a coaxial cable (50- or 75- Ohm) it needs use to a kind of matching device. Often it is not conveniently and complicates the design of the antenna. DM3SF made simple Vertical Ground Plane Antenna that has rigid design, does not require any tuning and has input impedance close to 75- Ohm. It allows use for the antenna a cheap TV-Coaxial cable. The 75- Ohm coaxial as usual may be good matched with most of ham transceivers that has output for antenna "50- Ohm."...

RA3AAE Antenna for the 10- and 2- meter Band: by: By Vladimir Polyakov, RA3AAE: Credit Line: Credit Line: Radio # 5, 1971, p.: 26

 

49- 50

 

  The antenna works on the 10- and 2- meter Bands. Antenna does not require any switching in ATU when the band is changed. Antenna radiates radio wave with vertical polarisation. Antenna is fed by 75- Ohm coaxial cable. The cable is very chip compare to 50- Ohm coaxial cable. It is possible to buy 30- meters good 75- Ohm cable intended for underground placement for 10… 20 dollars. Practically any transceiver (designed for 50- Ohm antenna) could work with 75- Ohm antenna......

  The simple antenna effectively works for 145 and 50- MHz. It is a symmetrical antenna. However, unsymmetrical version of the antenna is still working. For the antenna ground should be used good conductivity surface or several resonance counterpoises for each band...

All- Metal Antennas are very often used at VHF. The antennas have advantages compare to some other antenna designs. All- Metal antennas are easy to make because very often such antennas are made from one length of a thick strand wire. For some design of the All- Metal Antennas it is possible to use metal traverse that is grounded to the main mast. It is conveniently for design and safety for the lighting strike. Several designs of the All- Metal Antennas for the 145- MHz Band are described below. ...

Twin Magnetic Antenna has some advantage compare to a usual magnetic antenna.
The advantages are that the twin magnetic antenna, compare to usual magnetic antenna, has higher Selectivity and higher Effective Height...

 

Receiver DEGEN- 1103 (in the USA/Canada it is sold as Kaito 1103) has sensitivity at MW near 100-micro-volt/m and at LW near 1- milli- volt/m. The sensitivity may be increased at least in 20- times if the receiver would be placed inside a loop antenna...

This receiver works at all ham HF Bands- 160, 80, 40, 20, 15 and 10- meters. Bands are changed with help of plug-in coils. Receiver contains only two tubes. One tube is a pentode. This one used at an RF-amplifier. Another tube is twin triode. The tube used for the regenerative detector and audio amplifier.

Soviet Legendary HF Receiver KUB- 4

 

 

87- 89

 

 
The regenerative HF receiver was designed by a group of ham radio in the Leningrad Central Radio Laboratory in the 1929. It was in the group: B. Guk, S. Briman, A. Kershakov and B. Dobrozhansky. The group was called in Russian "Korotkovolnovaya Udarnaya Brigada", or, in English translation: "HF high-extensive work team". So, the receiver was named KUB- 4. Digit "4" means that just four tubes there were used in the receiver...
