[Base for HF whip]

this is the BASE and COIL for a whip made from a 8mm fiberglass rod.

 

this is made for 3/8" x 24 bolt. sadly i dont remember the HEX head size. please be careful and measure it and compare before printing. everything is epoxy'ed togueder to make for a strong construction that is water tight. the use of the “CB mount” is required. you must solder your antenna wire onto your bolt… personally i twist the wire around the whip, it help getting a bit of inductance/capacitance and make for a tiny bit wider bandwith.

MATERIAL:

  • 8mm fiberglass rod
  • 3d printed base and optional loading coil
  • epoxy glue
  • 3/8 X24 bolt 
  • wire for antenna (ive used copper and alumilium wire)
