End-Fed Biscuit 40 Assembled Antenna
The End-Fed Biscuit 40 is a light and portable HF antenna, built for the 40, 20, 15, and 10 meter bands. It is a self-contained unit that easily spools out and reels up for easy and quick deployment/takedown with NO extra winding tools required! The body is 3D printed using PLA. For the 40 meter version, we use 18ga silicone wire and 22ga magnet wire. We include a couple of extra feet of silicone wire for fine-tuning. The core of the transformer is a double-stacked FT82-43 ferrite toroid core.
