After much planning and careful implementation the “Zombie Special” antenna is finally on the air. Basically this is a caged fan dipole. I have gotten fantastic signal reports on 75 meters in excess of the standard fan dipole that this antenna replaced. It also seems to hear extremely well also. I have already heard stations that I’ve never been able to copy before the highlight of which was a QRP station in Oklahoma running 5 watts.
Plans dimensions would be interesting to look at. Let me know if you will post plans.
