"Sinclair" Style Wide Band Folded Dipole Antennas


Here are the intimate details on the construction of wideband folded dipole VHF and UHF antenna arrays of a style popularized in Canada by Sinclair Radio Labs. The design first originated in England in the late 40's and was first used by Sinclair in the 50's for their x10 series antenna arrays. They are still being manufactured by Sinclair and are the commercial antenna of choice in Canada. At least one (Comprod in Quebec) and possibly more competing manufacturers have copied the design.
