6m J-Pole by WB5CXC
Use a 54” piece of 450 ohm Ladder line. Cut out 3 inches of the center part of the ladder line. Solder a PL-259 on the bottom of the Ladder Line (both side of the ladder line will solder on the ground side of the PL-259 – this is used for the shorted part of
J-pole Antenna Revisited Yet Again
I recently had a conversation on the radio with another Ham who had built a 6 Meter wavelength band “J” antenna. He was getting some rather strange performance from this design, so I asked him where or how he had come up with the antennas dimensions. He referenced an Internet web page to me where
Mirrored J-pole
The mirror-image J-Pole is very easy to construct and requires only two T-Fittings plus a length of copper pipe.To visualize the antenna, one must only picture a 3 half-wavelength vertical and a 2 quarter-wavelength vertical positioned a few inches away from and centered on the the tall vertical. Construction of the mirror-image J-Pole is accomplished
Single Coax Feed to Multi-Band Copper Cactus Antenna
There are three connection possibilities to feed the multi-band copper cactus antenna with a single feedline or coax. However, it is imperative that you use the proper coax for the highest band of operation, RG58 just won’t cut it and even RG8 in lengths longer than 25 feet is marginal in 440 operation. For all

J-Pole Antennas
About J-POLE ANTENNAS by Mike Walkington, VK1KCK The J-Pole antenna is an omnidirectional antenna that can be used for base, mobile and field day stations. It does not need a ground plane, radials or a complicated matching system. The J-Pole can be cheaply, simply and quickly constructed using a variety of techniques, some of which
