The LLA Ladder Line Antenna Project

By KK5JY

This article presents an innovative homebrew antenna design utilizing surplus ladder line as a receiving antenna for HF and MF bands. The Ladder Line Antenna (LLA) transforms standard 450-ohm ladder line into a directional, bidirectional, or omnidirectional antenna system through different termination methods. The design, which requires minimal space and height, achieves 6-10dB front-to-back ratio on 40-160m bands using a 33-foot length. This DIY wire antenna project offers an efficient, low-profile solution for amateur radio operators, featuring broadband operation without ground radials and easy installation below fence height.
