Squalo Antenna for 6m

Home Brew 6 Mtr Squalo Antenna that I build and mounted in my attic. Easy to build and fantastic results with some scrap 1/4 inch copper pipe.

I used 12mm copper pipe for the “loop”, stainless steel strip for the shorting strap and feed point, and a small piece of PVC tube for the insulator.

The antenna is very easy to build. The website with the original design provides enough information on how to build it. The pictures suggest some construction details:
