In this lengthy video, I am building the end fed half wave antenna available from Adam K6ARK. This is the smallest antenna that I have ever seen much less built. It requires no feedline as it plug directly into your radio. The antenna can be used with HF bands from 160 m to 10 m depending on the length of wire you choose to use. It is a straight forward build but will require 100% of your attention to complete. You will need wire strippers, snips, a heat gun or something to install heat shrink and a soldering iron. Links to buy the antenna are below and link to his Amazon store. I have many of the tools you see in the video on my Amazon store which is also listed below. Enjoy this fun build!!! https://k6ark.com/ ------------CONTENT SELECTION-------------- 0:00 - Intro 1:09 - Parts and setup 2:53 - Installing SMD Capacitor 7:43 - Installing antenna wire 12:08 - Wrapping the toroid 20:10 - Attaching Toroid to PCB Board 25:05 - Installing BNC Connector to the PCB 27:50 - Installing Heat Shrink to antenna wire 29:00 - Installing Heat shrink wrap 31:56 - Assembly of antenna wire to Sbiner 34:22 - Tuning with RigExpert 36:14 - Testing the Antenna in a park 39:19 - Initial thoughts after testing 40:58 - Final Thoughts and wrap up ✅Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hr4nt/ ✅Website: https://hamradiofornontechies.com ✅Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/hr4nt ✅Twitter: https://twitter.com/HamTechies ✅HR4NT Amazon Store: https://amzn.to/3bkzzAo ✅Kit.co Product Recommendations: https://kit.co/ki5npl ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My Current Shack Setup: ICOM IC-7300 Yaesu FT-991A DX Commander Classic Diamond X-30A Antenna - https://www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-007913 Diamond GZV4000 Power Supply - https://www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-003067 LDG AT200 PROII Tuner ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #hr4nt #ki5npl #hamradiofornontechies ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FICRjkdE7k

I thought I broke my 705 or something else was wrong...turns out it was me that was wrong. Attention to detail when making Anderson Power Poles is crucial!

Updates to the grounding video from the other day. Despite my lack of interest in doing it, I drove in two more ground rods in separate places for different grounding reasons. Hope you enjoy the video.
