Publisher's Synopsis
How to Build Effective Wire Antennas was written to fill the gap between building an antenna from a pattern which includes all the dimensions and those very dry fully technical books which tell you how to design an antenna from scratch with all the details but doesn't tell you how. There is sufficient technical detail, where required, for you to be able to design your own wire antenna for any frequency you like and have it work as designed. There is practical information about materials to use with a focus on keeping costs down. These are simple designs that anyone with basic tools can build and have working in a couple of hours.
