Hi, I am from vasundhara ghazaibad only, i am preparing for this exam can you tell what i need to study the content at website seems confusing currently i am learning morse
Hi there, thank you for your query. It is a Vertical Dipole VHF antenna which I built with items that were mostly available in my house. Following are the items used for this antenna: 1) Two pieces of 19.35 inch electrical wire 8 gauge 2) Two Grey plastic tubes with entire length slit from a children's animal description calendar 3) End caps of the calendar slit tubes 4) Piece of 1/2 inch PVC pipe 5) Half inch PVC pipe 15cinch long 6) Piece of wood to act as a wall bracket The two pieces of 19.35 inch electrical wires are housed inside the Grey plastic tubes. Scrap off the end wires and use Lugs to connect it to the antenna feeder wire. Make five turns of the antenna wire of around seven inch diameter and tie is with a zip tie which will work as a BalUn (balance unbalance) Pls note that the braid side of the antenna wire should be facing towards the bottom while the sleeve wire should be pointing vertically towards the sky. Do watch again and freeze the video at 04:47 and 05:19 to get an idea how the antenna has been made like alphabe 'T' to hold it at the ventilator and also the BalUn. After completing it the entire PVC pipe including the Lugs have been weather proofed by applying hot glue gun The other end of antenna feeder wire has been intentionally been connected to a BNC connector. Ensure that the UV5R has a SMA to BNC adapter and you are good to go. Personally, I prefer BNC since it is light weight when compared to the SO239 varieties as it reduces the strain and torgue pressure on the HT's internal circuitry Here is a caveat: I have no means to measure the SWR but with trial and error adjusting the distance between the braid and sleeved antenna wires helped me to find a sweet spot when I got encouraging signal report from other hams Trust this helps and hope you are able to replicate this Vertical Dipole homebrewed antenna. Additionally, do read in the description section of the video too Further, this same Vertical dipole antenna can be made to use as a high-beam Yagi antenna by adding reflectors and director Cheers!
@@shandybrandy5407 if possible make a video of the antenna and upload on your channel. Or you may please suggest a video from TH-cam that I may make antenna because I am not from technical branch. Thank you
@@shandybrandy5407 Is it easy for not technical person to get passed from ASOC exam. Because I was bit confused that which I should General licence or restricted licence. As now I am in 12th class with subject as Biology Chemistry Physics. Is ASOC exam is tough? And After giving ASOC exam and passing this, after how much time we licence. Please Clear dought 🙏🏻
Dear Hams , Iam an absolute noob from Bangalore, I want to start my ham journey by buying baofeng uv5r ASAP, I am a doomsday prepper, I don't have time to go to classes to get licensed ham operator certificate, Can someone please advice how may I get started . Thank you

First of all to operate transceivers one has to have a licence from WPC, ministry of communication, Govt of India. To be in this hobby and to own wireless transceivers the cost can vary from a few thousands to lakhs and crore. In fact, the sky is the limit Cheers!

Hai , this Vu3 Fiz from Kerala ...73s dear.
Hello!
Vhf net? Is this connected to internet?
Nope, it's not Internet. The VHF rx & tx signals are in RF mode.
Is it an expensive hobby?? Do I need license to just listen?
First of all to operate transceivers one has to have a licence from WPC, ministry of communication, Govt of India.
To be in this hobby and to own wireless transceivers the cost can vary from a few thousands to lakhs and crore. In fact, the sky is the limit
