Re: Feb QST article A Portable Twin-Lead 20m Dipole

Greg:

Unfortunately, ARRL's offering of archival issues of QST can be somewhat difficult to navigate, but you can get access:

1.? You are correct that the "digital archives" only goes as far back as 2012, BUT:

2.? Earlier-than-2012 issues (actually, individual articles) are also available all the way back to 1913 or thereabouts, but via a different process:

2a.? Start at ARRL home page, login as ARRL member

2b. After login, go back to ARRL home page (if not already there) and click on "Technology"

2c. Click on "Periodicals archive and search"

2d. Enter various search items into text blocks, e.g., month, or year, or authors name, etc.? In this case, enter "2002" for the year, "Feburary" for the month, and "twin-lead dipole" for the title/keywords, and a new window will pop up providing a link to the article.

This "search" process can also be used for any year of QST (including the "digital archives".)? Although the process to access articles is different for pre-2012 vs. 2012-and-on years.

ARRL members have access to the archives. I can look if I remember.

Ask the ARRL if they have a digital copy. I know they have them on CD for past publications.

My father gave me this article back in 2002 and we made a few dipoles.? I'd love to get a copy of this article, but can't find it anywhere online.? Would anyone happen to have a copy of this???
I think these dipoles are made from foam twinlead.? Maybe I am remembering the wrong article.
