Hi,
Many thanks for the HM-31, dynamic to electret mic conversion. I followed your instructions and all is working: just need a few QSOs to ensure all is well.
Its hooked up to an FT-2000 and I have always liked the much smoother audio reproduction from an electret as opposed to dynamic-type mics

Hello John.
Very nice site, and some great ideas.
I have a J-pole for 4 metres, but will make a Slim Jim instead to get that extra gain.
Also Your MH-31 tip will be the next small project here.
Please keep up the good work 
All the best, oz5es Ebbe

Hi John, Great work on your website and thanks for making the info and calculators available. One thing which I believe you should do... Nowhere in your calculator or discussion of the Slim Jim do you mention G2BCX, Fred Judd, SK whose invention this is. It is traditional in radio to associate the design with the inventor and it would be nice to have the articles refer to the '2BCX Slim Jim'. My 2cents.

Just built the Slim Jim for 4m and wanted to thank you for the excellent Slim Jim Antenna Calculator. Made it out of 13mm copper pipe and following your measurements within the mm the SWR was 1.5 acroos the band. Two small adjustments and its under 1.2.
Not sure how its working yet as 4m is a bit dead but always impressed with this design.
