!Building * Use google and you can find a lot of very nice articles about the end-fire arrays. * '''I really recommend:''' ** Enhanced F/B Beverages by [W8JI|https://www.w8ji.com/echelon-log_beverages.htm] ** Ideas For Enhanced Beverage Antenna Performance by [N2NC|https://www.kkn.net/~n2nc/bev_arrays/] ** And the best book called ON4UN's Low Band DXing at [dx engineering|https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/arr-8560] *** Chapter 7 and 2.16.3. The End-Fire Beverage Array *''' And some notes:''' ** Both antennas must be the same ** The same height and length ** Tune terminators to the best flat SWR - should be under 1:1,3 (on 50 ohm feeder) ** Select null direction if needed from table ** Calculate phasing line ** Do not forget on: 2 * Length L + phasing line must be more than diagonal between feeders ! . * '''Table with Phasing lines vs. element spacing and NULL:''' ** Element Spacing (degrees) = Beverage Stagger distance. (20m distance on 160m band is 45°) ** NULL Angle is angle you want to notch the signal from ** Result: Phasing Angle for next calculations (Souce LBDXing by ON4UN) [https://remoteqth.com/img/ZAW-WIKI/2elendfire/table1.png|noborder]
