Transforming Your Tower into a High-Performing Dual-Band DX Antenna

By N9NB

This article demonstrates how to convert an existing tower into a dual-band vertical antenna for 80- and 160-meter DX operation. Using EZNEC modeling and practical design principles, the authors achieved a low-profile, efficient setup with a single coax feed line, no moving parts, and optimal radiation patterns. The system integrates an 80-meter vertical wire and a 160-meter shunt-fed gamma match for simultaneous operation. Detailed construction insights, including feed system and capacitor configurations, offer a reliable, full-legal-power solution.
