My 5-Band Attic Antenna for Ham Radio

Radio amateurs (hams) living on small urban lots or subject to HOA restrictions may find this post from Peter Waters (G3OJV) interesting.

In this video, Peter shows us how to install a 5-band HF antenna in a small attic space.  Although this compromised antenna has limitations, it will get you on the air without your neighbors knowing about it.

Here are some comments from Peter (G3OJV):

For those with smaller gardens, or indeed no gardens, the attic may be one of the best options as a site for an antenna. Whilst it is easy to install a VHF antenna in the attic, it can be even easier to install and HF antenna. Here, Peter G3OJV shows how it is very easy to install a multi-band HF antenna, even in quite a small loft or attic. Your Ham Radio Store https://www.hamradiostore.co.uk
