Next time you visit Cal, come ion for a beer. !!

The more I watch you , the more I can understand this miracle they call the Antenna.
You're very easy to listen to. And your content is always spot on.
Keep up the good work!

From California

Very useful!  --Regards from Baltimore.

Callum I appreciate your time. I can't thank you enough. 🙌

that trip to new zeland part was funny.  i know i am not alone in loving to tinker with antenna. thanks again for your videos!

The doorbell skit was like watching The Two Ronnies! Haha
Great concept to fix one direction and attenuate the other. Very cool and interesting.🍻🤠

Last time I was out on the beach my 12 year old 10m, very, very old, well used pole  broke, so now I have a brand new pole and a the slightly shorter, old pole, so I can try this myself… but maybe not in a howling gale! ( Note to self… will have to ask Dave next door if he’ll lend me his fishing rod rest) Corrrr! Food for thought!  Brilliant!  Thanks Cal! 💐

I've built a 2m phased array years ago and man did that thing get out.

Hi Cal,
Always enjoy these What If videos when you use MMANA. Hope Wendy is feeling better and you all stay safe.  73  WJ3U

I built a half-wave vertical for 10m and a longer parasitic with a switch in it. No radials needed, and I can switch the parasitic element to reflector or director and swap directions. Works a treat.

Love your vids, going to give this a shot before the snow flies. Cheers!

Very helpful, thank you!

Great video as always Callum

That's what I use on my vehicle  minus the groundplane radials.  Love the bounce back setup!

As has already been commented on… dropping by to see Roly… brilliant, and so
funny!
Keep up the good work!
Cheers, Peter VK3ACZ

Tried this in MMANA for 20m:

1. Raised both vertical elements about 2 meters using studio lighting tripods - interface nicely with Superantenna mounting brackets
2. Used Chameleon 17ft whips for verticals
3. Angeled radials close to 45 degrees down - terminating 1 meter above ground on a plastic fence pole
4. Radials were in the direction of max radiation - about 35 degrees apart (on both active and reflector elements)

Came up with almost the same result - 1.31db forward, - 8.6 rear - that gives me a theoretical gain of 3.3x forward over a single vertical.

With just two radials for each tripod - and printed brackets (hooks) to wind them on one of the tripod legs - it is a fast deployment - can’t wait to prove it in praxis in the field

Watching for switched phasing!👍

love this stuff. thanks cal!

Awesome Laird McC.

As always another interesting presentation !
