Pictured below is the 100 AMP Harrison Laboratory "FLUX Capacitor" step-up power supply
feeding the Henry SS750 Power Amplifier using #2 Gage wire throughout the electrical system.
The 2.0 Farad Capacitors, fore and aft of the power supply, help stiffen up current. To clean
up excess wiring I fabricated 1/8" thick copper jumper straps and copper electrical connectors.


Nothin like a little HIGH OCTANE for the Henry SS750.

 

Cap Box

 

Here's my special feed point bracket, antenna base assembly
and the special ground manifold for a direct and efficient way to
quickly add and remove radials.

 

 

This is a powerfeed feed point induction coil I made with variable speed remote control. This allows me to
nail a "0" reactants from the driver seat. I can also see the coil position from my rear view mirror.

 

 

I made the special copper terminal brackets
for managing extra connection points.

 

This is a photo of an earlier system I made. I made the Radials
out of #12 FLEX-WEAVE ultra-flexible aerial wire. Each radial
is 16 Ft long. I use (4) on 40 meters and (8) radials on 75 meters.

 


When transporting the Cap Hats the 36"Dia. 8 spoke hat
mounts over the 5Ft. 5"dia. 16 spoke hat as shown. I use
the large hat on 40 and 75 meters.

Note! All Hats and radiators are made out of 6061 T6
aluminum for lighter weight and higher permeability.

 

 

 

 

W8UZZ - 35" Dia. 8-Spoke Capacitance Hat

35" Dia. Capacitance Hat for your Screwdriver Antenna

Brand "NEW " from W8UZZ.

  • Super efficient
  • Ultra light ( 10.3 oz's )
  • Very strong with very little wind loading for its size.
  • Made from high quality 6061-T6 Aluminum

  • (8) Radials are 3/16" dia. encircled with 1/8" dia. rod.
  • Center hub has 3/8"-24 thread hole for mounting on your radiator.

    If your Screwdriver antenna resonates at 29.950 Mhz with a
    3 ft long radiator, adding this hat to the top will bring resonance
    just above 18.300 Mhz. This will make 17meters and below
    much more efficient and increase the radiation resistance
    dramatically.
