Hi radio gurus and fans
My question might be naive to some, but I must ask.
In the past I tried random wire and those reel antennas, but they don't seem to work that great. All I get is noise even when turning off my computers and other electronics near me.
I was thinking like ten feet copper wire for each side and the feedline will be a coax cable with no balun to connect to a portable SW radio.
Before I spend money on theses parts, I want your experience and feedback if this can work. Thanks
