My Home-brewed Linear Loaded Dipole--AKA The Cobra, by W4JOH
I use 14 AWG 3-Conductor ROMEX and pieces of 1/4" Plexiglas
The three conductors must be left in the sheath!
Requires a decent roller inductor tuner.
This is one GREAT dipole
If you don't want to build one yourself, you can purchase a Cobra UltraLite
at any Ham Radio Outlet store
or directly from Joe, K1JEK, Just click the link below
