Feel The Fun of Self Confidence
Jesus Faith & Antennas
What started as a quiet evening in my radio room sparked an unexpected journey of discovery. While tinkering with my Yeasu FT-817 and reminiscing about the old Ten Tec Triton 4 I used to haul to our cabin in the Pennsylvania woods, I wondered: could I merge the power of these two radios? With a bit of ingenuity, some careful connections, and a healthy dose of curiosity, I did just that.
What unfolded was more than just a fun experiment—it was the beginning of an adventure that reignited my passion for ham radio. I soon found myself delving into antenna modeling, exploring the potential of in-line dipoles, and even imagining the possibility of creating radio signals with multiple frequencies. In Chapter 2, I reveal the secrets of doubling power output through phase-fed dipoles, and in Chapter 5, I invite fellow hams to join me in a bold new quest: beating physicists at their own game with simpler, yet innovative, techniques. This book isn’t just about what I discovered—it’s an open invitation to the ham radio community to push the limits of what we can achieve together.
