Dominican Radio Club delivers donation to Radio Club d' Haiti

As part of the relief efforts after the earthquake in Haiti, the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) and the Ham Aid Program, with the intermediation of Mr. Ramón Santoyo, XE1KK (the International Amateur Radio Union – Region 2 (IARU-R2) Secretary) and the Dominican Radio Club collaboration; was delivered a Repeater, to collaborate with the radio communications coverage in the devastated nation.

The donated repeater was originally sent by the ARRL to the Dominican Radio Club Teams in Haiti; and was used as part of the communications support of the Dominican Red Cross Rescue Workers. Actually, by request of the ARRL to the Radio Dominican Club, was shipped as donation to our brothers HAMS in Haiti.

The delivery of the repeater was made by the Dominican Ambassador Douglas Lapin, K1OY, in the Dominican Radio Club representation, who delivered the equipment in the hands of Mr. Jean-Robert Gaillard, HH2JR – Radio Club d' Haiti actual President.

According to Mr. Lapin information’s, the repeater programmed in 146.925 -600 frequencies will be linked to the 147.030 + 600 and 146.760 -600 repeaters actually installed in Haiti, building a new nationwide coverage radio network.

DISENO DE ANTENA PARA 6 Metros,Autor KB1DIG & KB1GTR

Back to the KB1DIG & KB1GTR Hampage ..... PARA LOS QUE GUSTAN DE LA EXPERIMENTACION CON LAS ANTENAS LES PRESENTO UN DISENO INTERESANTE PARA ESOS FINES., EXISTO EN SU EXPERIMENTO., Gracias a KB1DIG & KB1GTR.
Check out Frank's NG1I Ham Webpage at: http://webpages.charter.net/maclamb/






New ideas from Frank NG1I and Steve N1TYH. Several different building techniques. Great stuff!
Please check out the new spin on this homebrew 6M omni-directional halo antenna: http://webpages.charter.net/maclamb/6m_halo.htm

Check out Don's N4UJW Ham Webpage at: http://www.hamuniverse.com/
See the page Don set up about this antenna design: http://www.hamuniverse.com/6mloop.htmlThanks Don!

Please check out the comment section below for some insight on SWR adjusts. This can be a little tricky...

Some comments about the 6-meter HALO antenna


6 METER HALO ANTENNA DESIGN
April 28th, 2002, By Steve KB1DIG
Something a little more advanced. Always fun to try out new bands.
This halo is made with a true Gamma Section this time and is fashioned from aluminum.
Most of the parts are leftovers from old car projects.
The best part is it's omnidirectional!
The 3/8" fuel-line I used came from Summit Racing Equipment: http://store.summitracing.com #SUM-G2538,
and a 25' section costs only about $20.oo.

Frank NG1I and Steve N1TYH used aluminum fuel line from a NAPA auto parts supply store. http://webpages.charter.net/maclamb/6m_halo.htm
Some of the mods I came up with were:
  • Welded the elements to the aluminum plate with some of that "Alumaloy" stuff advertised on television.
Alumaloy Sample auction
1/10 pound or 2 rods of alumaloy aluminum repair rods.
Go to eBay: http://www.ebay.com/
Key words for search: (SAMPLE) Aluminum REPAIR Rods ALUMALOY
  • I drilled a small hole in one of the elements to allow condensation to evaporate.
  • Capped off the end of the gamma arm with a plug to keep the weather out. The plug was an automotive type used to block off a PCV line from a carburetor.
  • After mounting horizontally to a 10' mast I added a support system made from 2 thin 3' fiberglass rods and some wire-ties.
  • Also, remember to hot-glue the wire-ties to the fiberglass rod.
Both 54" elements are bolted and welded to the mounting plate.

Use galvanized or some other type of corrosion resistant bolts.

The size of the bolts is not so important other then that they fit snugly into the ends of the 3/8" fule-line and hold the elements in place while welding the elements to the mounting plate.

This "Alumalloy" product is great for this purpose and is more like soldering than welding.

After the 2 elements are welded, leave the 2 bolts in place for added support.
The so-239 connector is pop-riveted to the mounting plate. Face the pop-rivets out and away from the gamma section.

Cut back and expose about 1/4" of the center conductor of the RG-8 section for soldering to so-239 connector.
Position the 1" wide aluminum bracket on the Gamma arm, inward about 3 1/2".

Expose about 3" of the RG-8 coax center section.

This is just a starting point for matching this antenna.

I was lucky and didn't need to make any further adjustment for lowering the SWR. The SWR on this design seen here, just the way it is, was 1.2 to 1 at 50.125Mhz.
This halo design is intended to be mounted parallel to the ground.

It should work well for base or mobile operation.

I presently use this antenna at my home QTH and it has proven itself to be quite successful for SSB work. It is presently up on the roof, mounted to a 10' mast section in a 3' tripod stand.

It can also be modified to work on the FM portion of the 6-meter band by shortening the length of the 2 main elements a little at a time. I have not done this. No change to the gamma arm will be required if this antenna is altered for 6-meter FM.
Good luck building! Works slick! CQ CQ DX!!!Have fun! 73@be good! Steve KB1DIG ;-)
