If anyone is building a wire antenna, I will get them some wire. I can handle a couple of requests. Let me know how many feet you need. Wish I had more to offer someone. VRMN |

A buddy told me to use a whole roll (440 yds?). Do you have that much?  (I need a balun too. RBA 1/1.)
Looking for a whip antenna for my VX-7R, also. I've got a bunch of connectors and such . . . I'll try to get a pic up in the next couple days. *What a great idea for a thread! Way to go!

I guess I can call Next again!
No hurry of course, I know the extra test gets a little bit technical. |

there are two good study guides you can download and read while you wait for any books to become available. |

MFJ-812 VHF SWR Wattmeter. WIll work for 440 although it isn't listed for that. power ranges aren't accurate for 440 SWR, Power, Field strength. not a great meter but better than none. Please, if you already have meters for VHF?UHF let some newer ham have this one. don't take it for resale.. only if you need it yourself. This is the old 812, not the newer 812B. This one is over 20 years old. Not sure where the one page instruction sheet is now so downloaded one from the internet.   |

I was looking at one last week at the local ham radio shop. I did not buy it because money is tight this month. I seem to enjoy building antenna's as much as playing on the radio and thought it would be a good idea to eventually invest in an antenna analyzer. Although an SWR meter would work until I upgrade, then of course re list it here.
First post since team membership expired!  I will fix that next week!

On second thought I will just wait until my new debit card comes in so I can renew and save a lot of time.
Thanks KM |

It may read SWR ok but I wouldn't count on it being accurate for power readings. I looked it up on several other sites. The meter I listed is for 6,2 and 220 accordiing to MFJ. I have found that it will work on 440 bu the power doesn't read accurate. I found that on the 440 band if you set it at the 300 watt setting it is actually very close to accurate for 30 watts. I have often used it to check 440 antennas even though is wasn't designed for that band. It works good enough to tell if you have a problem. |

Still don't have the VHF SWR meter claimed. If anyone wants it claim it or I will take it to our local club meeting on tuesday and see if someone there wants it. |

I may have a meter or be able to help you tune the antenna. |

I ran the included test software dozens of times and that really helped my confidence with the actual test. They told me name and call sign should be posted on the web site Monday afternoon. The test examiner gave me a wink and said I was obviously very well prepared, so thanks to SCWolverine for setting me up for success. Looking forward to shipping the book to the next person wanting to take the test per SCWolverine's request. Stoop |
