Does anybody know if such a thing exists in Pre manufactured form?
Shunt matching coils are pretty cool things too

I have used the gamma match from an ice trashed moonraker 6 bolted to the bumper of a Dodge van, tuned with the old mfj and worked Cali skip from downtown Nashville TN.

We had a time with that Van. 2 leece nevell 200 amp alternators, 8 18v tow motor batteries, Pluto swinging into a Texas Star 500 driving a 32 pill box built by black John in Memphis, copper coil copper antenna dead center of the top with a1/4" steel plate supporting it.
Take it to Manchester every year for the Good Times gang shootout. Hold a steady 4 grand on the 318 and key down baby.Slowmover1, davew48 and rabbiporkchop Thank this. -
Wondering if it is the same Black John I knew of. All he built was hacked linears.
IIRC, he got a Bluegill Special to copy from that.
What a harmonic boxes they were.
Anywho ...
I saw an interesting antenna the other day, a circular dipole. It was a vertical setup and the owner claimed it worked well on 11 meters, just a 1/4 copper tube in a circular pattern with a gap/resister at the top and a little matching network attached to the feed point. the resister is a 75 ohm (I think that's what he said) terminating the two halves. I heard him about 26 miles from where I met up with him the other day.
No pics, I didn't have my phone with me at the time. I think he is a TTR member, I mentioned I was one and we talked about odd antennas.Slowmover1 and rabbiporkchop Thank this. -

Just trying to hit the elusive 50 ohm mark on a single frequency.
