Antenna Basics
“General Class Ham Radio instructional video, introduces Section 6.1 in the ARRL General Class License Manual. The section is extremely short – meaning too short. So I do the opposite. Here’s 20 minutes of introduction that will help you truly understand what’s going on. With this background, the rest of Section 6 will be a breeze! You can see this video in context by going to ke0og.net/general, which has an introductory video as well as links to all of the General Class instructional videos. Check out ke0og.net/training for the introductory videos for the Technician Class license.”
