Our presenter is Dave W7UUU from Burley, WA. He’s been licensed since 1974 and active for most of that time. Tonight’s program is an educational and entertaining look at limited-space and/or HOA antennas. The basic types and concepts are shown in a short segment to explain each, followed by a 3 minute video with actual SSB audio of 8 such antennas compared back-to-back with rather astounding results. It’s a fun presentation whether you live in an HOA or have acreage with towers.
