Thank you Peter. Here is a challenge for you: How about gathering the materials and maybe a helper and making a series of build videos for this antenna? Maybe put together a kit for sale so we can all build one? Finding the right kind of aluminum and bits of hardware to build antennas with is sometimes a real problem. Especially stuff that is 12 feet long and has to withstand high winds. I think it would be fun to build this antenna. Dave WD9O
Thanks Peter, very good content as usual. I spent most of my summer holidays in and around Leiston in the 80s. It's where my radio amateur interests come from. My grandfather was a ham and inspired me. He was G2DJM and lived in nearby Aldringham. I took over his callsign in the later 1980s after he passed away. 73s
Thanks Peter, very interesting as always and brought back memories. I remember them being sold here and advertised in radio magazines in the 60's and 70's.
Another wonderful and helpful video. Thank you for the "dash" of history that you bring into most of your videos...quite interesting and enjoyable. thank you, 73 WD9M
Good afternoon Pieter thank you for the explanation of this beautiful yes mini Jari Beam antenna for 1015 and 20 m band excellent how you explain to me I would like to build it but because of my low vision I can't see the drawing well is this drawing also available online possible thank you for in advance continue with your beautiful RUclips channel greetings from Theo PA0HTY
Peter, I've been keen to build this antenna ever since you posted the video last year. Now it seems you have more detailed plans available. Any chance you could link to the plans you show in the video. Such a neat antenna for small spaces.

Agree 💯
Unfortunately I don’t have a tower and at 81 years I have some limitations! But nice idea.
Be good if someone else who as built one to do a step by step guide to building one

Interesting story. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Peter, clever idea
Thanks Peter! As a tech, it's a bit above my head (literally and figuratively), but something to shoot for! Beautiful Mustang flyby to!
I like this, thank you Peter.

Yes me too.

Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Peter. Would have enjoyed seeing the actual build. My DIY skills are rather poor with me being an apartment ham 😂

I also have a visual problem. Can you take a screen shot and then blow on PC?
Would you not have to put limits at both ends of rotation as you don't want the ladder line wrapped around your rotator.
All rotators have limits of rotation. Usually just over 360 degrees.

This was the plan published by G 4Zu in mid 1950s. No other details were published as it was then protected by UK patent and in commercial production.
