So it’s antenna Monday at the blog. Sure this will be released on Tuesday but all the antenna news seems to have come in during the night from Sunday till Monday. This antenna below looks familiar to me but under another name? I’m not sure but I am sure the smart and wise readers in USA for example will sure have an idea on which antenna this one is based.
And more importantly than ever is the information about this antenna:
Open Helical Coil Gives Wide Bandwidth (26 to 30MHz) and Efficient Cooling
Tunable 0.200″ x 48″ Tapered Stainless Steel Whip
Great SWR Match and Tuning Outside of Normal CB Bands
Anodized Aluminum Construction Light-Weight Corrosion Resistant
Chrome Plated Brass Ferrules and Stainless Steel Stud for Strong Mounting

There are many makers of open coil antennas here in the 2 Division, some are large scale and some some in home/hobby businesses. The K40 pictured resembles an early Monkey Made antenna. http://www.monkeymade.com/
