Loft antennas (3 replies)
I don't exactly know what you mean by a loft?
I'm living in an appartement and use quiet successfully mobile whips (from Moonraker) for HF and a small Yagi for VHF/UHF from Wimo Germany on my balcony.... I use QRP on all bands... Worked VP8 Falklands yesterday with 10 watts and mobile whip on 18Mhz.... Some JA and USA stations on 10MHZ with same setup yesterday evening...
You can see some pics on my website:
Hope this helps!

Many thanks for this I will look into it for my location - now I just have tp pass the exam!
I'm using a discone antenna in the loft...
And use it for 2m/70cm Tx... Good for local only obviously but an option to consider as you can also use it for other things like SDR etc.
