I got 4mm rods screwfix 4mm crimp butts they dint fit on even tried a hammer to get in to rod's no joy

Just Remember, If You Keep This ANtenna Verticaly., You Need To Keep The Central Wire On Top, Not Bottom.

I Used Similar Materials, I Just Used Copper Pipes With Silicone And It All Made It Weather Proof And Vibration Proof Because Of The Silicone, Put The Vertically On A Fishing Pole And Fishing Pole Into The Mounth In My Third Store Of The House :)

Newbie here..good video if this covers civil and military will it also cover marine band on the same length as in the video cheers

When you say the noise floor is lower or higher- how do you know that the difference is not in the actual noise floor but differences in the gain of the 2 different antenna amplifiers? The only true test is to compare signal/noise.

Hi thanks for this video, do you have a link for the aluminium rods pls or a part number at screwfix, 2nd question, how would I then connect this to my Grecom hand held scanner please? Sorry for the noob questions, thanks.

I have the SDR Dx, Soon to have the SDR Duo for Sdrtruck,

Thank you sir!

What sort of connection would you use when soldering to the rods? Thanks 👍

How do you do that with the ExtIO version?

*promosm*

Thanks

Wow. Looked amazing. My wife has bought me a aerobatic flight experience through virgin and Tatenhill is one of the options. How long was you up there for?

It looks like you had a nice flight ;) Happy (belated) Birthday 🎉

Great tool with many applications to comer. But you will never control all this from a flimsy the touch panel. We should ditch the display and connect this to a chromebook via USB.

Can this modification help to eliminate 50\60hz line noise?

Putting a bigger loop on the MLA-30 makes a big difference. My antenna for example receives down to around ~20KHz. Submarine communication DHO38 on 23,4 KHz, the British time signal on 60, the German on 77,5 and a couple more at night and day. It's basically a homemade YouLoop with 3 m circumference on the MLA-30 amplifier. Still goes up to around 30 MHz.

A reasonably fair assessment, though you tend to try and explain the difference when the MLA is better than the Wellbrook. The other way around, you say "as expected" of the W/B. Also, the MLA-30 is beyond its design range below 500kHz, so the comparison is not valid.

Try making a loop from cheap rg6 coax,use the same length as the supplied wire.just use the outside of the coax.you will see the difference then.

Any chance of a video on how to connect to SDR Sharp please?

This is one easy to build antenna mate. Look forward to more great videos making antennas.

Very nice, could you post a link as to where to get the water proof box

Doesn't it have a touch screen? Also, you should look at SWR and impedance of the antenna. You want your SWR as close to 1.00 as possible (<1.50 is good) and your impedance to be the same as your receiver and cables (usually 50ohms)

New to the hobby Just subscribed to squawker fantastic program using the Uniden UBC3500XLT with freescan is there plans to add this to scanner integration. Thanks

Thanks for the video very useful . Can I still hear airband channels clearly enough that are using the 8.33 khz frequently on a 25 khz step scanner ?

Hi. Can you please tell me the diameter of the rods.i do have copper coated welding rods could I use them of even coat hangers. Thanks

I see you crimp the coax shield and center conductor wires directly to the antenna rod. Is a 75 ohm balum necessary or does it matter . Thanks from the US.

How do I set the range ?

I just ordered an MLA30+. It will be better than what I have now, nothing. Money is tight and it will do me OK! (I hope) lol

Hi, regarding long wave. I've tried the Bias-T on my SDRplay and this massively reduced LW signal strength compared to when I used the Biasing Tee that was supplied with the MLA30. I must admit I have the MLA30+ though, but maybe you can give that a try or try a different supply which delivers ~12V rather than the 4.7V that the SDRplay can only deliver.

Well done, dude.

Hi, would like to know how long the elements would need to be for military signals Regards

hi where do you buy this elements?

I ORDERRED THIS DEVICE TO YESTARDAY, I HAVE LIKE 40 DIY ANTENNAS THAT WORK SUPERGOOD, BUT SOME NOT SO THAT WHERE THIS DEVICE WILL COME IN, I THINK TO CHANGE SOME PARTS ON IT LOOKING TO YOUR VIDEO and WOW, this Item for THAT price is soo good, can`t believe it will arive like that! i just can`t wait to test my antennas that im listening to emergency police radios from and to see how good actually is my 17 meter antenna, with 17 meter i mean its 17 meters up in the sky on my 3th Floor Roof, Thats The Last Floor Of My Private House,Its 1M - 3M Antenna Actuallt Im using A Boafeng AND An Sdr's, soon i will make a Workshop For My RUclips Channel Where I Will make EVERYTHING , I Will Show How To Sufvive On A Minimalism And How To Make Stuff That Actually Works From Random Items And For Noise Reasons I Will bring All My radio Equipment There To Because In My Garage Doest Have Any Electric Items Now On, But There Will be, But When I Will Work With radios, All Will be Disconected, Here In The House I Just Can`t Deal With That Thing, In House I WIll Make Studio At The Same Time Because My Workshope IS in the House Now, But I Will Move It To A garage And The Room Where The Workshop Was I Will Make That Studio For Beatmaking, Music Making And Video Making And Videogame Streamiung And Just Chilling Place,m Like A Real mancave, I Will Make A Car Simulator To From Wood Frame From Logitech Steering Wheel And Pedals And A Shifter, I Will Make It So realistic, I Will Put A Vibrator Motors In The Chair Of The Car, I have A Real Vibrating Chair And I WIll Use Motors From That Vhair To My Simulator :) The Simulator Will be Suspended On Springs ANd Rubber So You Will Feel The Vibrations Much Better Because If The Simulator is On The Ground, The Hround Will Take Most of The Vibrations :) Soo jheah, Best of That, I Will Videotape Everything i do there soo, You Might Wana Subscribe If You Are In To That Kind Of Stuff, Ohh, Yes, Im making Antennas To :) A LOT OF THEM And This Device Will Be A Life Saver For Me :)

Just note... the measurement was done including feed line which could make impact in case of high frequencies. Cheers.

those are not bullet connectors they are butt splices

A tree rat on my roof ate halfway through my coax cable so now I have to replace it. I'm thinking 35 feet of something better than what comes with it. Ideas please.

Tried using an MFJ bias-tee but it doesn't make any difference!

Don’t you need a 1:1,5 balun? Dipole is 75ohm naturally

good build there, looks nice and light for portable amateur use. I like the connection boxes. one point, I thought the aluminium rods came anodised i.e. no conductivity- did you sand it off first or were they bare aluminium. Barnie M7PBX.

Thank you for sharing your results. Keep on listening 🎶👌

If you make one for the UK VHF 2 M amateur band it will also work on 70 cms UHF, 73's and thanks for the video.

Very nice very nice one of these days I’m going to get me an SDR so I can look at all that stuff from everywhere. Going to order me a MLA - 30

if you buy the subscription to squawker on the UKAFG, do you get access to the UKAFG Book online, have you got full access to that book or not.

How dare you even suggest this piece of garbage?! Cheap Chinese junk! It can only do 2/3 of things my Tek TTR500 can do! And my TTR500 was only $14,000! If you can't even afford a small price of $14,000, why do you even bother? Radios are for rich people only, get your easily affordable products outta here! I'm kidding, of course, but I see a lot of folks that rag on inexpensive gear just because it's not top shelf and this is how they sound to me as a beginner ham and not very rich person lol. Also I have no clue what a TTR500 can or cannot do, it was just the first model I found on Google.

Thank you for the excellent review!

Hey There, New sub, Been watching your vids. I just bought your 2021 UKAFG and now this stand. Do you recommend this scanner... ? thanks GN

You should do a comparison video of the youloop to the other loops it seems amazing especially with a sdrplay RSP-DX HDR mode. AA4CP Chuck Port Salerno FL USA

Can you check the gain of the antenna ?
