HF Antennas for Limited Space (Amateur Radio HF Antennas Book 2) Kindle Edition

by Claude Jollet (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.0 out of 5 stars 84 ratings
What additional challenge is there to HF communications besides: overcoming often adverse propagation conditions; establishing solid contacts in the cacophony of pileups when conditions are good; acquiring the necessary operating skills? Finding space to install a large HF antenna, that's what! This e-book, with its many illustrations, will supply some of the most viable HF antenna solutions for restricted spaces, and explain the pros and cons of each. You will then be free to choose the solution that will “fit” into the space you have available while meeting most of your needs. The solution you opt for will involve compromises. But, at least, you will have the luxury of being able to choose.

    Claude Jollet was born in the predominantly French-speaking province of Québec, Canada in 1946. He retired from a 31 year career in operational meteorology in 1997. In addition to his formal training in meteorology, he holds a degree in Computerized Management Systems from Université du Québec à Montréal.

    In his spare time, he liked to tinker with radios and antennas. He obtained his license to operate an amateur radio station in 1973. His call sign has been VE2DPE since then.

    A self-proclaimed eclectic, he has spawned a number of websites, each a byproduct of his passions: meteorology, amateur radio, "infopreneurship" and... writing, of course. Here are some examples:

    www.HamRadioSecrets.com

    www.LeRadioAmateur.com

    www.ClaudeJollet.com

    www.Meteo-NDP.info

    www.ClaudeJollet.ca

    He self-published a four-book series on Amateur Radio HF Antennas:

    eBook 1: Introduction

    ISBN: 978-0-9916968-2-6

    eBook 2: HF Antennas for Limited Space

    ISBN: 978-0-9916968-3-3

    eBook 3: Homemade HF Antennas

    ISBN: 978-0-9916968-7-1

    eBook 4: HF Antenna Accessories

    ISBN: 978-0-9950273-0-5

    eBook 5: The compendium edition containing all four eBooks

    ISBN: 978-0-9950273-5-0 (paperback)

    ISBN: 978-0-9950273-3-6 (Kindle eBook)

    He also authored a miniseries of eBooks, in French, titled:

    Antennes filaires HF pour radioamateurs TOME 1 - exploration inusitée

    ISBN : 978-1-9994336-1-1

    Antennes filaires HF pour radioamateurs TOME 2 - pour espaces réduits

    ISBN : 978-1-9994336-4-2

    Antennes filaires HF pour radioamateurs - Compendium

    ISBN : 978-1-9994336-8-0

    Until recently, his eBooks had all been non-fiction, in English. However, he has also self-published a book of poems and short stories, in French, titled:

    L'homme et son fardeau: transsudations poétiques

    Paperback ISBN: 978-1-9994336-0-4

    Kindle eBook ISBN: 978-0-9950273-7-4

    2.0 out of 5 stars A readable beginner's introduction
    Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2017
    Verified Purchase
    If what you are looking for is the most basic, non-technical introduction imaginable, you'll surely be happy with how readable this is. But the potential buyer should be aware that that is what this is. And I do mean basic. It took less than ten minutes to read it "cover" to virtual "cover." There is almost no technical information here beyond the wire-length-to-frequency formula, and nothing that is not freely available on a great many amateur radio websites. It omits information that is covered in the other three volumes of the series, so it has limited use as a stand-alone volume, and it's $18 for the four-volume set. That's more than 1/3 the price of the paperback edition of the venerable ARRL Antenna Book, which runs to nearly 1,000 pages and includes a CD with searchable text. If you are looking for more than a beginner's introduction, you may want to save your pocket change for a few weeks and spring for the big book.

    This book was mostly about dipoles. It takes a lot of space for them and therefore I don't believe it is for limited space. Misleading title.

    2.0 out of 5 stars too basic
    Reviewed in Germany on September 15, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    if these basic antennas (the all known half wave dipole, for instance) are for limited space, then I wonder, what the author does consider large space. there are just the few widely known antenna types in this book together with tons of references to his other books.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Do not look for space reduction in this volume.
    Reviewed in Australia on July 15, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    The technical data in this document is a basic list of per-band antenna types available. Dipoles and verticle radiators are discussed, however limited space (limiting the space of these types or space reduction) is briefly discussed near the end of the 33 pages. Bypass this folio unless you have no amateur clubs or amateurs contactable or near your residence.

    This 'book' is just a few pages long and contains information easily available elsewhere. It also suggests buying another book to get the information that should be in this book. Avoid.
