8M - Antenna

So as mentioned I decided on a halo design based off G3XBM "homebase-10" and as this was experimental band and didn't want it costing me much I used what I had around the house.

The structure is all wood, wire is something I had lying around and a dipole center with SO-239. With credit going to Roger for sharing his original details, I'll name it the "Homebase-8"!! 

In the loft the VSWR is 1.5:1

Here are some drawings and the formula to help construct your own for any band within reason!
