I have finished the task of installing the omni-directional antenna.
It is installed approximately 250 meters from the shack, and it is fed with 1-5/8″ Heliax.
It measures with relatively flat SWR from 3-30MHz.
It remains to be seen whether it is installed too close to some of the Beverage antennas, and whether the presence of the vertical will have any detrimental effect on the directivity of the Beverage antennas.
The structure is 60 feet tall and occupies a space of 40 meters in diameter (130 feet) and it was difficult to find a level area for the installation.
