Radio Handbook,1938 by Frank Jones..page 68,,,Jones' version on the famous
Windom antenna. I used this version many times over the years,always worked
well.

Hey Charlie!!!
Merry Christmas,
Hope you all are well and kicking out in cornland.
Down in the basement here with the fireplace going (gas, not a walk out
basement like my place out there)
Listening to the HRO-50 on the broadcast band with a 10 foot
wirenext year a bigger skyhook, hi.

Wouldn't it be real simple to use a Line Flattner/"Antenna Tuner" to the
single wire transmission line, fed against good ground, to a Windom that
is close to resonant on most of the bands, get on the air and enjoy its
properties?? 73 , K0NG .

It's important here to draw a distinction between the antenna itself, in this
case a single wire cut to a half wa
Okay, let us try again. I thought the question was.." how can it be
RESONANT" at more than one place..Mr. Windom clearly shows that it is and
how to prove it. A antenna cut for twenty works great on 10, a forty meter
job works great on twenty and ten, an 80 meter works 80-40-20-10 etc. It is

I'm sorry if I'm seeming a little dense, but I can't get unwrapped from the
'single wire fed version' of this antenna.
Open wire output from the link has *2* wires. I can see attaching them to
some
open wire line, and feeding this Wyndom antenna at 1.8125, and having the
antenna resonant on

The feed line is part of the ant and does a lot of radiating. The Windom is
not a good ant for your residential area. It generally works against an
earth ground but it might be possible to feed it with a balanced and tuned
1/4 or 1/2 wave balance line and just attach it to one side lea

In QST magazine for September 1929 the original Windom Antenna article
starts on page 19. It clearly shows that it is exactly resonant on all of
it's design bands, so long as there is an harmonic relationship. 80-40-20-10
etc. There are diagrams included which show how this is determined with an
