[qrp-l.org] Cobra Antenna

[qrp_1 at juno.com]

I was going to try to build this antenna myself at one point. I  
purchased some three-conductor rotator wire from Radio Shack and some  
ladder line from somewhere. I was going to drill up make the  
insulators out of scrap plastic, but I never got that far. [[[snip]]]

Dan,
  I built one back a few years ago and was not overly impressed with it -
it didn't work as well as my 178' doublet so I gave it away.  My thought
is don't go to the trouble to buy or build it because there are easier
antennas to build that will work as well or better !
