new SWL antenna setup for sailboat
Hello all
My new Sailing vessle (Beneteau 343) is on its way next year and it
will have twin backstays.
I like to listen to SSB and HF comms and have used active antennas
before on board with poor results always picking up more interferance
and timebase etc.
I plan to fit an insulated "wire" (using egg insulators) from the mast
head leadinng down to the transom area and use a a balun near the base
that will connect to the radio.
Can anyone suggest and pros and cons of this kind of setup and suggest
any better setups
Thanks
Franky
