Chapter 37 160M Antenna
Well... May Day is over. Should I come back to read the novel? Xiaoqiang really needs everyone's support, please collect + vote, thank you!

Due to the interference of his sister, Xu Wenle's ten-minute promise finally failed to be fulfilled. Finally, it was half an hour after they arrived at the agreed place. This is the result of Xu Wenle's continuous urging outside the bathroom. Otherwise, you can't expect Xu Wenjing to come out without an hour.
"Wow, Citroen CX2.0!" Xu Wenjing ran to Duan Fei with a surprised face and kept look up and down at the light blue car behind Duan Fei, "It's so beautiful!"
This Citroen is the latest imported French car. Its low streamlined body is very different from the styles of Toyota Crown and Nissan Duke imported at the same time. The more fashionable and avant-garde design immediately stands out and is known as the most beautiful car on the streets of Beijing.
Xu Wenjing quickly took out a fool's camera from her small sats-body bag and took a picture of the car.
Xu Wenle also took the opportunity to compliment Duan Fei and said, "Duan Fei, you actually drove out the official car of you and the old man. It's really awesome!"
But Duan Fei was not fooled by him, and he was still very angry: "Wenle, what time is it now? How did you guarantee it yesterday? It's like playing the piano indiscriminately, unorganized and undisciplined!"
"Hey hey!" Xu Wenle smiled shyly, "I originally set the alarm clock, but the alarm clock didn't go off. Do you think I'm depressed? OK, don't be angry. Isn't it my fault this time? They have already left, haven't they? Let's go. Let's not stay here. Let's go!"
Because Xu Wenjing was present, Duan Fei could not lengthen his face. After staring at Xu Wenle, he pulled the door and got into the car. After everyone sat down, he started the car to drive quickly to the northwest.
"Brother Fei, where are we going?" Xu Wenjing sat in the right cab and asked.
"Go to the northwest suburbs, which is located on the edge of Inner Mongolia, where we have a base. Wu Bai and Yi Pengfei have passed first. Duan Fei turned his head and took a look at Xu Wenjing. There was a trace of tenderness in his eyes. "I also wanted you to go there with me, but I was afraid that you couldn't get up early. I want to invite you to visit after we finish it."
"Did you set up a base for the game?" Xu Wenjing asked with an excited face.
"Yes, we must get the best results this time." Duan Fei said confidently, "For this competition, we have been preparing for a long time, and we will win the first place in Asia anyway!" You can't let Japanese ham show off as much as before.
The country with the most hams in the world is the United States, followed by Japan, so Japan is a big country in the amateur radio world. Due to the large number of hams and the very developed level of electronic technology in Japan, the technology of Japanese ham is usually very powerful. In the amateur radio competitions over the years, Japanese ham has been occupying the championship position for a long time, and sometimes the top three are all Japanese hams.
This is very difficult to accept for Duan Fei and the ham people who grew up in the office compound. Therefore, in order to win this competition, they really spent a lot of effort this time.
"Hee hee, hit Little Japan!" Xu Wenjing raised her fist and shouted a slogan with a smile. After shouting, she looked back and found that her brother fell asleep in the back seat again. She muttered "Big Lazy" and continued to talk to Duan Fei about the CQWW_DX competition.
Duan Fei's driving skills are very good. Although he drives fast, he is very stable. About two hours later, they came to a construction site in the northwest suburb. The ground was full of soft soil, and the color of the soil was still very fresh.
The whole construction site is surrounded by barbed wire, and a wooden sign is erected at the entrance, with red paint saying "Military heavy land, idle people are not to enter".
Through some traces around, it can be seen that this mud has only been flattened recently. I don't know what kind of project it is. It occupies a huge area. At a glance, the field of vision is extremely wide.
In the distance, Xu Wenjing heard the roar of the heavy machine engine.
"We're here. Let's get off the bus." Duan Fei parked the car next to a temporary single-room engineering hut.
"Big lazy, wake up, we're here!" Xu Wenjing shouted to her brother who was sleeping behind her, and then jumped out of the car.
The first thing she saw was that two huge excavators were rumbling about 20 meters ahead, and a deep ditch was gradually dug out of the ground in front of her.
After they arrived, the two people came out of the engineering house. It was Wu Bai and Yi Pengfei that Duan Fei said before.
"You are finally here!" Wu Bai said as he walked. Although his name is Wu Bai, he is not white at all, but a little thin and black.
Yi Pengfei, who followed, said, "Yes, Wenle, you have no sense of time. Until now, look at the time. It's past ten o'clock now." He was white and thin, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and looked very quiet.
"I'm sorry." Xu Wenle had to apologize again. In order to divert his attention, he quickly asked, "How's the progress going?"
"The foundation of the antenna has been buried, a total of three. The construction workers have already left for a group. Wu Bai pointed to the direction of the excavator in front of him and said, "Now we are digging trenches, but the efficiency is relatively slow, but there is nothing we can do. There is only one excavator, so we can only take our time."
Hearing Wu Bai's words, Xu Wenjing couldn't help but be surprised: "Brother Xiaobai, are you making antennas?"
"Bingo!" Wu Bai nodded with a proud look on his face. "Little, you have to open your eyes today. The antenna we are going to make today is probably the most advanced antenna in the domestic amateur radio industry at present."
At this time, the excavator over there had dug a trench of one of the antenna foundations, so several people went to the edge of the antenna foundation to check.
Duan Fei introduced to Xu Wenjing at this time: "Xiao Bidian, this foundation is made of reinforced concrete, with a length and width of 80 centimeters and a height of one meter, which is specially used to fix the antenna tower."
After Xu Wenjing saw it, she couldn't help spitting out her little tongue: "How high is this tower with such a big cement pier?"
"One hundred and sixty meters, just equal to the longest wavelength specified in the competition!" Wu Bai interrupted at this time.
"160 meters?!" Xu Wenjing opened her mouth in surprise. She thought it was almost ten or twenty meters at most, but she never thought it would be one hundred and sixty meters.
As a ham family, she still has some ideas about antennas. Basically, in the ham family, the common antennas are Yagi antennas. If conditions permit, long-line antennas may be used, but only about ten meters at most. In addition to the antenna of the national basic communication facilities, I have never heard of a ham using such an exaggerated antenna.
Several young people present showed a look of pride on their faces. They had never made such a high antenna before. For this competition, they took great pains to ask their grandparents to finally open up all the joints before the competition, making this project possible.
