DESCRIPTION:

The Inverted "L" is a 1/4-wave Marconi, fed against ground or a counterpoise such as radials.
The antenna displays a low feed impedance, which allow you to feed it directly with 50-ohm coax cable.The vertical section should be as high as possible, with the remainder of the antenna run horizontally to a support, such as a tree or a
mast.

If one has a good RF ground, simply drive a suitable ground rod and attach the short end of the balun directly to the ground rod. The balun must be vertical to prevent moisture build up. An array of 20 #18 copper wires, 25-30 feet long -
attached to the ground rod, will provide an excellent counter poise. (NOT INCLUDED)

4:1 triple core current balun

Constructed using three 240/61 cores. Stainless steel hardware. Wound with #14 tinned PTFE covered wire

This 50:200 ohm dual core current balun is actually designed for a 65:260 ohm making it useful for 75:300 and 50:200 ohm ranges.

The NI4L 160L will come fully assembled, complete and ready to go with balun, 123' Poly Stealth 18 wire, 2 end insulators and crimped center and end connections. Add your 50 Ohm coaxial feedline, counterpoise, suspension rope and go.

Can be used as a end fed shortwave antenna to provide continuous coverage from 500 kHz to 60 MHz. SWL


Note:
A wide range tuner may be needed to tune this antenna to 160-6 meters.
