Dear A1CLUB members,

Hope this finds you well.

Here in JA, it's been a bit colder a few days and this morning the front glass of my car was frosty.

Here is an INFO of next A1NET, Weekly CW Chat Net of A1CLUB.

--- The 216th A1NET ---

DATE : 2023/02/18(SAT)

TIME : 10:30Z - 11:30Z (19:30-20:30JST)

FREQ : 7.025MHz (3.525MHz if 40m CONDX is rotten)

* QRG, login A1-Chat of the A1CLUB webpage
(ID/PW : 599)

KEY : JJ1FXF/HIRO
QTH : YACHIMATA City, CHIBA Pref. (JCC1230)
RIG : FTDX-101MP(200W)
ANT : 13mH INV-Vee DIPOLE

As most of you know, 3Y0J (Bouvet Island) was really a huge pile up, and lately FT8WW (Crozet Islands) has come back on the air.

So on the next A1NET, I would like you to send me your memories of DX QSOs if CONDX allows.

And certainly!, only RST exchange or self-introduction are all OK.

I'll be looking forward to hearing from you.

Bill-san,

You are right. The carbon rod antenna seems very interesting and is getting popular only in JA now.

HPE you’ll be successful.

// HIRO, JJ1FXF

I have watched most of Socho-san's videos about the WWR antenna. (JJ1XTG has a lot of videos) This carbon rod idea is very interesting. I am going to attempt building one.

It was surprising to learn about the carbon fiber rod antenna. There is practically no information available about this outside Japan. Carbon fiber fishing poles are commonly used as antenna masts, but not as actual antenna elements. This seems to be a uniquely Japanese development in the ham world. I'm looking forward to trying it out.

I am ordering an AH-730 ATU and am looking at some different length rods. I assume that a 13m rod would perform better than the 7.2m rods on 80m & 160m. I may have to purchase a few different lengths and test.

Bill-san,

The carbon rod has more resistance than aluminum. But the merits are cheaper and longer but easy to set up when POTA.

If you also search on YouTube, you’ll find many videos regarding the carbon rod antenna.

I suppose that JJ1XTG, SOCHO-san (a member of A1CLUB) is an enthusiastic fan of the carbon rod antenna. He calls it WWR antenna, Win Win Rod. Don’t know the reason. hihi

Hi Hiro,

Interesting. The construction of the Carbon Fiber Rod antenna reminds me of the CQ OHM / Nagara design for a for a single element with an ATU:

Except they use aluminum tubes.
