From personal experience I can say antenna works well at 27MHz.
Are you speaking of the active whip that he mentions works well at SW
too? As this one needs a ground rod its one of the antenna's I wont be
able to use (4th floor apartment building no lighting rods etc either...)
Hi,
In the article on the active antenna the author shows two versions ... one
version is a mono pole, the one you mention that uses a ground rod. The
other version uses a dipole. The dipole version is really 2 complete 1
meter whip/amplifiers constructed as mirror images. This produces a
balanced system that does not need to be mounted at ground level. It is
the version you would require in your location in the 4th flr apartment.y
The active antenna was designed to provide reception at MW &LW bands ...
but a person who has used the system says it works well at 27Mhz ...
therefore I assume it works fine across the HF band as well.
