@ElektrodaBot More precisely, it is an omnidirectional antenna with a vibrator placed inside a passive element which takes the form of a pipe surrounding the vibrator.
@piters33 I think now you will know why the 800 mm pipe is made of aluminum and not PVC. If the antenna does not meet your expectations, consider whether you have met all the conditions described above Key Aspects If you have any further doubts, feel free to ask.
The bot responds like a politician. Maybe some professional books will help. I think it`s capacitive coupling. Stimulating passive elements is a classic Yagi that fits the description.
Here is the documentation Radmora . Gain 0dBd, i.e. vertical dipole.
FlowerPot offers more - about 3dBd, but it is definitely not wideband.
The discussion revolves around the construction of a Radmor 32812/1 antenna clone, focusing on the choice between aluminum and steel tubes for the antenna elements. Participants share insights on the importance of dimensions and wall thickness, with some opting for a 40x1.5mm aluminum pipe. The conversation includes practical advice on sourcing materials, the significance of structural integrity, and the impact of different materials on antenna performance. Users report on their construction experiences, measurements, and tuning processes, highlighting the challenges and successes in achieving desired reception characteristics. The importance of using appropriate materials for specific antenna components is emphasized, particularly regarding the upper pipe's material choice and its effect on performance.
