A Simple 2-element 6m Quad

摘要

I' am writing this in late June and anyone who has been on 6 metres (the 50MHz band) will know what the others have missed! The summer season is upon us and has come with a vengeance, although no stateside signals have been heard so far. 'Six' is a superb band which offers quiet operating for across town coupled with real DX capabilities especially as we near the sunspot maximum. Simple equipment is easily built and aerials are small. We have two offerings for six within the next few months, the first being a two element quad and the second an AM modification to the Imp CW transmitter (RadCom, July 93) which will allow SSB stations to be worked as well as CW.
