Dave, wish you had talked a bit about phasing in the colinear antenna. Like how the antennas from Diamond, Comet etc achieve match in a straight line antenna. When there's no stub in between the elements..
Geometry class: Between any 2 points is an infinite number of collinear points (points on the same line), all part of the same line. All made possible because points are an exact location without dimension, so that a new point can always be placed between any two points on the same line.
The first time I realized that that antenna was a j-pole matched, end fed antenna, I was very surprised and happy, because my understanding of antennas had improved! :)
0:49-" 'Collinear', by the way, means 'Collinear'." . Thanks for clearing that up!! Love your videos! I'm a long-time subscriber. Nice that we've got a good sense of humor!! 73s buddy!!
i always thought of collinear as collinear dipole arrays of something, this one looks odd, like bc of the y/2 i thought impedance will go to infinity or something at the feed points
I grew up listening to a Helicrafter receiver identical to the one on your top shelf on your right. And the Yeasu FT-101? above you head, is it an operable 101?. Great video as always, ive been watching your videos while taking practice quizes for my tec license, the tec is fairly easy, the General is a bit more confusing, but ill figure it out. Thanks for reading!
Great video Dave. Thanks for showing more antenna ideas great for new comer's and seasoned operators.

That is a good idea, but a very complex concept to explain well! :) But I would like to see it! :)

I am engaged :) 73
Thanks Dave, good briefing...fm

Excellent! Thanks for the great explainer on collinear feed end-fed antennas!
0:16. Thought he was gonna say Charles Manson. Lol
Very informative! Thanks Dave.
Thank you for clearing up the spelling!

Join the club, every time I order something from MFJ, I need to fix it out of the box. I stopped using them.
I have heard this often. Geuss I've just been lucky, never had a problem...
Thanks!

Thank you so much,,, hve learned a lot, god bless
Dziękujemy.
Thank you for your financial support of this channel! It is greatly appreciated! 73, Dave, KE0OG.
Dave, do you remember the double-bazooka antenna?
I've heard of it, but I must confess ignorance regarding specifics.

Dog bite?
Thanks for the fine lesson
Take care
Warp 10 Captain?
Multiple antennas stacked .
MFJ incorrectly built? Noooooo ! No way! Lol.
Looked like a G5RV
