ANTENNA CAROLINA WINDOM ® 160

It will not hurt the antenna’s efficiency if you bend the ends of the antenna slightly to make it fit into the space you have. Just keep the vertical radiator in the clear and the wire as high as possible.

This antenna is optimized for the lower bands. For even better performance on the bottom bands only, special VERTICAL RADIATORS , optimized for 80 or 40 meters, are available.

Flat Top: 265′

Inverted-V @ 50′ Length = 240′

Inverted-U @ > 50′ Length = 256 – { 2 (height – 8′) }

Sloper @ 40′ No major change in length requirements unless you have very tall supports.

† Minimum recommended angle between legs = 126°

Ideal inverted-V angle = 140° or more.

† Minimum angle between legs = 90°

† Minimum height at ends = 8′
