Building and experimenting with antennas can be an interesting part of the radio hobby. Here we have collected some links to building instructions for 11m antennas on the www. There is also links to some sites with general info on antennas.
- http://cb-antennas.com/CB-antennas.com by 19SD348 & 30DA016 contains information on several antenna types and also dimensions for 11m.
- http://www.dx-antennas.com/DX-antennas.com by 19SD348 & 30DA016 contains information on several antenna types and also dimensions for 11m (CB-antennas.com above is the new site).
