Homebrew CHA Antenna I: The Build

Описание: I homebrewed a $360 Chameleon MPAS Lite antenna for $174 to see if it performs the same! This video (Part I) is a detailed walkthrough of the build steps. Be sure to watch all the other parts in the series FIRST before you start so that you know what you're getting yourself into if you attempt this yourself!

If you want to buy the MPAS Lite instead of attempting a 5:1 unun build like this, you can buy it here: https://chameleonantenna.com/shop-her... I'm not sponsored by Chameleon, I just think they make awesome gear!
