Description
If there is one thing I love, it's sitting on a boat, on a river, in the dirtiest Chain of Lakes I could find. This Dirty Chain of Lakes, located on the fox river, will also allow me to activate multiple state parks and a never activate USIOTA.
All that to say I am in the process of building THE FOX RIVER COIL.
Now, this is designed to be used as a Center loaded vertical. However, Try it as a Wolf river style.... I don't know... experiment or something :D.
Use a 17ft whip or 25 ft whip, 3/8-24 couplers and hardware, for whatever configuration you need.
No instructions yet, it's in progress. However, if you want to try to build this, feel free to print it. I used 18awg tinned copper wire for my first iteration. https://amzn.to/3Dm2Ufb (affiliate link, becuase). However, I am down to hear your suggestions, as this is still a project, very early in progress.
I need help!!! If you make this, I would love feedback (respectfully) on your results, so I could make changes, if needed.
HOT TIP: When you figure out the tuning for different bands, ADD COLOR!! Then you can easily reference band switches :)
