Speaker Topic for this Month:
“Extreme but Practical Antennas for Portable Ops”
Adam Kimmerly, K6ARK
One of Adam’s favorite aspects of the amateur radio hobby is antenna design and construction, and over the years, he has come up with several antennas that fall into the category of “extreme” or possibly even “ridiculous” but are also amazingly practical in certain situations. In this presentation, Adam will review a few antenna designs and the process of creating them from concept and design to prototyping, testing, and tuning.
Adam Kimmerly, K6ARK, is an avid SOTA activator, engineer, and search and rescue member. Adam has been a ham since 2010 and much of his radio activity consists of portable operations. With the goal of continually making his setup more compact, effective, and light, Adam has come up with several antennas and other kits and components that help him achieve his goals. Adam’s website https://k6ark.com and YouTube channel provide him a way to share them with everyone.
