1 THE OZIPOLE Mk II A Portable Multiband Dipole Bob VKAFZ Many amateurs might be familiar with the Ozipole, a small portable loaded dipole for the m to m bands. It was designed by Peter VKEVB and supplied as a kit by the Mid North Coast Amateur Radio Group. More information can be found at their website This is a description of a version which was built from parts obtained mostly from hardware and salvage suppliers and garage sales. This modified version includes capacitance loading elements and a balun at the feedpoint, with the aim of improving bandwidth, efficiency and matching to the transmission line. The total cost for the antenna was about $. PARTS LIST : Antenna Parts x Black Poly Riser pipes, mm Ø x mm, threaded both ends x Brass Pipe Couplings, x mm Ø female x Brass Reduction Bushings, mm male to mm Ø female x Brass Nipples, mm Ø male x Brass Machine Screws, mm x mm x Brass tube, mm Ø x mm x Brass tubes, mm Ø x mm x Telescopic Whips, mm m PVC Insulated wire, x. mm conductors,. mm outer Ø [ Altronics W*] m PVC Insulated wire, x. mm conductors,. mm outer Ø [ Altronics W *] mm solid copper wire,. mm Ø [ Altronics W* ] x Alligator Clips, mm x Black Poly Riser pipes, mm Ø x mm, threaded both ends x PVC Tee Couplings, mm Ø with one threaded socket x Brass Tee Coupling, mm Ø with threaded sockets x PVC Elbow Couplings, mm Ø with one threaded socket x PVC Joiner mm Ø with threaded sockets * Nearest sizes Balun for feedline x Weatherproof ABS Box, mm x mm x mm x Toroidal Balun ( see below ) Support Mast x m Paint Roller telescopic extension handles [ second hand ] x Camera Tripod, ( Pan & Tilt Head removed ) [ second hand ] m Polypropylene rope, mm Ø Large Tent pegs CONSTRUCTION : The antenna was constructed according to the basic Ozipole design by MNCARG. ( It seems that the instructions have been removed from their website, but can be found on various Yahoo groups including and ) Where I used a different construction method, it is explained below.
2 The radiators were constructed as shown above. After winding the coils, the ends were soldered to bare solid copper wire loops, which serve as tap points for the m, m, m, m and m bands, progressing outwards. A link () with an alligator clip () is used to select the tap position for each band. Another link () is connected to to the brass coupling () with an alligator clip (), and the radiator wire () is attached to the balun at another copper wire loop by an alligator clip () ( see Support Bracket diagram ). Short mm Ø brass tubes () were soldered into holes drilled in the reduction bushing (). Up to four of the mm x mm Ø tubes can be inserted into these sockets to produce a variable amount of capacitance loading when the antenna is assembled. ( See Tuning Chart below ) The Support Bracket was assembled as shown below, applying PVC cement to the joints. The PVC Tee connectors ( & ) may need to be reamed out a little to provide a tight friction fit for the radiator poly pipes, which should not fall out when the dipole is assembled. NB : Do not glue the radiators into the Tee connectors.
3 The dipole should be raised to a height of approximately metres. I used a camera tripod and two paint roller extension handles to obtain the height, with guy ropes for lateral support. BALUN & FEEDLINE A : balun was used on the m to m bands. The construction of the balun is shown below. Bifilar turns of PVC insulated wire ( x. mm ) [ Altronics W* ] on mm Ø ferrite toroid
4 TUNING An antenna analyser was used to indicate the resonant frequency of the dipole elements. Tuning is accomplished by selection of the appropriate tap point on the tuning coils L-L-L-L, installing up to four capacitance loading rods on each side of the antenna, and adjustment of the length of the telescopic whip sections at each end of the elements. If the telescopic whips are not long enough to tune the antenna, extra hanging wires attached at the tips with alligator clips can be used. On the m band, no resonance was obtained and a wide range ATU would be required to use the antenna. No tuning was carried out on the m band as the balun did not have sufficient bandwidth for m operation. The Tuning table below shows the results of tuning adjustments. Variable factors including ground conductivity and proximity of other objects will affect the results.
