(or just working on other stuff) Mon, 27 Apr 2026 21:34:00 +0200 http://petint.ddns.net/ham#2026-04-27 I have two new antennas at my QTH, a long-wire antenna with 1:49 and an "American" 2 band VHF/UHF base station antenna on my roof.<br>These antennas were installed with the help of HA7GZS and HA5BLK. I'm very grateful for their work.<br> The VHF/UHF antenna is working very well, with a sub-2.0 SWR on most of the aforementioned bands.<br> The HF antenna also performs quite well.<br> SWR values are: 160 m: ~1.3; 80 m: ~1.7; 40 m: ~2; 20 m: ~1.6; 15 m: ~1.8; 10 m: ~1.8
