CAROLINA WINDOM Short 80

The CAROLINA WINDOM Short 80 is optimized for 40 and 20 meters, but you don't give up efficiency on the other bands. For long-haul operation the CAROLINA WINDOM Short is in a class by itself. When the band gets hot, you get hotter. No more standing in line waiting your turn. You work the station first, then just sit back, relax and let the other guys fight it out on frequency. You don't have to give up casual operating, just because the CAROLINA WINDOM Short is a DX antenna. Non-DX'ers need a big signal, too. Besides, the CAROLINA BEAM is field reconfigurable. You can select just the right combination of medium-angle and low-angle patterns. You can have a signal that demands respect.		 It's the perfect, high performance, antenna choice for the DX'er, traffic-handler, rag-chewer, or dedicated SWL.

The CAROLINA WINDOM Short requires far less space than other 80 meter antennas. All you need is 90 -100+ feet between supports and 30 or more feet of height, to be on the air with an outstanding signal. When the band opens up, you'll be ready!
Don't forget that both the CAROLINA WINDOM Short 80 and the CAROLINA WINDOM Short 40 cover the WARC bands.

CONFIGURATIONS for all CAROLINA WINDOM Short models

FLAT-TOP

This is the design configuration for a CAROLINA WINDOM Short . You need two supports (trees, etc.) separated by the appropriate distance. Be sure to keep the vertical elements away from metallic objects.

INVERTED-V

You may install your CAROLINA WINDOM Short as an Inverted-V but the angle must not be too sharp. 120 degrees is the acceptable minimum. Element spacing will be compromised if a smaller angle is used.

SLOPER

There is no problem if one end of the CAROLINA BEAM is higher than the other.
