Compact Dipole Antenna for the 80- and 40- meter Band takes a little room and cover broad range at the bands. Figure 1 shows design of the antenna. It is a dipole antenna that turn on to a delta shape. It allows significantly decreased the sizes of the antenna. Antenna is placed vertically to the ground. Antenna may be made from a wire in diameter of 2- 3- mm.

File MMANA allows play with the antenna according to the height above the ground.

Figure 2 shows parameters and DD of the Compact Dipole Antenna for the 80- and 40- meter Band at 80- meter Band. Figure 3 shows parameters and DD of the Compact Dipole Antenna for the 80- and 40- meter Band at 40- meter Band. The parameters are simulated in NEC for MMANA. High point of the antenna is at 11 meter above the ground.
