Hi

Has anyone here tested out which antenna works well for Paraset? I gonna use the set from my shack, not primary field-operation.
(In my case for 80 meters).

Hei Henk

18 m long wire ok - I get to try out, as well as good grounding.

The paraset actually tunes well on my 83m loop, BUT without knowing how well it actually works, but it is far too long.
I also notice that the antenna is very quiet and good / RX.

Due to the 2 var caps Antenna and tank tuning, the Paraset is very forgiving concerning antenna length.
But it was designed to end-fed antenna, and not hang up, half wave high!
