Copper pipe QFHs

My version of Paul Hayes' 15mm PHQFH with Trifilar Balun


22mm QFH made 'Tall and Thin' to get better horizon performance


Coax QFHs

My first ever QFH. Its beauty is in the careful construction (NOT!)


Much more successful 'Tall Thin' Coax type in use for 1999 APT Competition.


This is a static version of my mobile aerial. It uses the same dimensions for the loops but has five pairs of cross members to maintain a good helix shape. My most successful APT aerial so far.


Another homemade beauty. My friends said I should get out more so I built this to go mobile with. It's a Chris van Lint / Eugene Buck type with removable cross members for easy transport. I have to paint all my aerials in camouflage colours to keep our neighbours quiet!


This was a complete disaster. It was supposed to be ultra lightweight and portable but the use of 2mm coax made it useless. I think the problem was impedance mismatching.
