PLANAR ARRAYS, CIRCULAR ARRAYS

Prof. Natalia K. Nikolov

 

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 chose for ANTENTOP.

 

Now I want to present to you one more very interesting Lecture - it is LECTURE 18: PLANAR ARRAYS, CIRCULAR ARRAYS. Planar arrays are more versatile; they provide more symmetrical patterns with lower side lobes, much higher directivity (narrow main beam). They can be used to scan the main beam toward any point in space...

Modified Beverage Antenna

Igor Grigorov, VA3ZNW

 

I took the decision. At last! I took the decision to participate in CQ- WW- 160- Meter Contest. My setup for the Contest was IC- 718 and Beverage Antenna described at Antentop- 01, 2015. The antenna had termination resistor 450- Ohm/25-Wtt. It allowed me run the IC-718 on 50-Wtt without damage to Beverage's termination load. So I decided participate in the Contest as a Low Power (up to 150-Wtt) Single Operator...

Beverage Antenna. Theoretical Look on Practical Result

Igor Grigorov, VA3ZNW

 

My Beverage Antenna (that was described at: http://www.antentop.org/019/va3znw_019.htm. The antenna was successfully tested at CQ WW 160- Meter Contest (CW), CQ WPX (2016, CW) and ARRL International CW Contest (2016). I worked there with my IC- 718 using only 50... 90- Wt.

 

However it stands interesting for me what is the theoretical data for my Beverage Antenna...
