Re: [IRCA] Simple phasing setup

["Craig Healy" <bubba@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here are some pictures of the phasing system.  First, the vertical antenna.
Took ten minutes to make.  Seriously ugly...

Next, a couple of shots of the combiner as I use in the truck.  This is a
more elaborate version of the one shown in the schematic.  This has pots for
both antennas, plus a 0/180 degree switch for the loop.  Since the loop pot
is always at full CW, it isn't needed.  The 0/180 degree switch is also not
needed because simply turning the loop 180 degrees does the same thing.

I'll write up a more detailed article when I get some time.  Hope it's
useful to y'all!
