End Fed Antennas

End Fed Wire Antenna

One of the most practical antennas for field work is the half-wave end-fed antenna. It employs a 49:1 transformer to lower the impedance of a half-wave wire fed at the end. It allows multi-band operation with certain wire lengths, mainly 20 meters and 40 meters. The longer wire covers bands from 80m to 15 and even 10m.
