2 Meter Coffee Can Antenna
People Who Liked This Video Also Liked
Did this video help you?
Kd8OUR: Sleeve antennas work well and are easy to make. paint cans work good
too. You can even get away with using nothing but the coax if you have
mad hatter coax hacking skills. Stick the whole thing in a fiberglass or
PVC tube and seal. I work at an airport. VHF/UHF sleeve antennas, ground
planes and discones.
If you have an old mag mount the element can work well with a coffee or
pain can.
jacky Parker: Done similar myself and it works a treat
Ade Larsen: You don't have any paint cans ?? It's time for you to paint the house !! Make your wife happy !
Bill McGraw: Is that 5/8 of a half wave? I scribbled a long time, confused.
Jonathan Warner: Is it just the metal bottom of the can that is providing the ground plane? If so this should work with one of the cardboard sided coffee cans with the metal bottom. I wonder if extra radials would make a better ground plane for it?
Robert Fern: impressive! I have to try this one but with a paint can since those coffee cans are collector's items nowadays. thanks for sharing. 73's
26CT1520: Excellent videos, thanks. 73's
Anthony W Stanton: Way cool video of a home-brew antenna! I gotta find a coffee can now and try it! Oh, a pizza pan works great as a ground plane as well! 73 de AC6GM
Jopa Liz: Может лучше с пивной банки?)
g0fvt: It is a good demonstration of what can be done, incidentally IMHO the can is a bit small for 2m, ideally from the hole to the edge should be a quarter of a wavelength, I suspect this is why the whip ended up at 22" when I would normally guess at about 19". Nevertheless thank you for making a well presented video.
ad5kl: Great idea for an attic NOAA or VHF scanner antenna.
Mauricio Riqueelme: anto DB ???? uno ???? angulo de radiacion ?????
Bill Bijnsdorp: Hi Dave For the vertical element you could use an antenna from the back of a tv or portable radio. No need to cut wire, just extend as needed. The ground plane could be the metal screen from a fan' Bill ve3srh
hi li: like the adult version of plastic cups and a string. all you need now is a coffee can emitter.
Mark Ruhland: This is a very cool design for a 2 meter antenna!!!
Bill Bijnsdorp: What about a telescoping antenna from an old tv set Bill ve3srh
Mark Ruhland: Very cool!!!
Andrew Polezhay: I wonder how to change the SWR if Bank of coffee will be slightly smaller:? 73! de UT1ZZ
721NorthernAlberta: Amazes me on how you whip an antenna. Good going Dave.
WD7N: I've made several "cantennas" over the years, The easiest way to solder the center conductor on a SO-239 is to tap it out of the connector then solder the wire in place. Once done just tap it back into place in the connector. That way you don't melt any of the insulating material around connector and have a better solder connection as well.
Bryan Miller: Bob Heil had it right in one of his books he said "every thing that exists is because someone tried it"
Electronoob: Geeking Out: brilliant :D
Camp Cossack: ROFL!! Love it! Thanks Dave, I'm stocking up on connectors, paint cans and copper wire.
wulff707: Yo the people that keep talking about Dave putting lead in his mouth, electrical solder now days are LEAD-FREE! Just like paints. Also. someone said a large can wasn't the best for 2 meter, he is simply using the can as a ground plane (artificial ground!) you could use a 55 gallon drum if you wanted, he isn't using the can as a reflector by putting the element inside the can. Please people read before posting.
Vasile Pop: Very neat! 73 de VA6POP
Matthew Curry: This is a very cool design for a 2 meter antenna!!!
TREE HUGGAH: now that is pretty cool.i put that one in my favorites list.great work sir. watch for a coffee can antenna in all the catalogs for the holidays,ya better get your patent together!!!! 73,KB3YJO
Jonathan Sawyer: I wouldn't hold leaded solder in my mouth. Who hasn't got that secret stash of "proper" solder?
N0rthwestRadio: This would be a great way to introduce the concept to others and what a great platform to do it with. After the experiment you have the delay lines to use to build a Quad or Yagi type design using the same principle. The next step would be set the cans in a three point triangle each having its own delay line to a control point. Using a switch setup to excite certain feed to change the patter without moving the cans. Am I being to hard on ya? Grin... Phasing is fun experimentation. Apply to HF!
Tianyi Xie: Dave you are wasting this coffee can. It can be made into a 2.4 GHZ cantenna.
purplemutantas: I just built this antenna today. It works better than my Ed Fong J pole! It's pretty amazing what a coffee can and coat hanger can do! We are going to be doing some simplex practice on our local new operator/tech net. I may have to stick my coffee can up on my mast and see how that works out. Thanks for the video Dave. 73
Adam Dickson: you could always just solder the wire into a pl259 no need for a coffee can then easier for handheld use
Brian Shriver: Very cool project. I have to get an analyzer like that.
Spankbucket here to stay: cool idea....I'm going to give it a try!
purplemutantas: Simple. It's just a quarter wavelength element. So just calculate the wavelength at your chosen frequency and divide by 4. It's pretty simple stuff. Stuff you really aught to know before you start building antennas. Dave has a great video on dipoles. Check that out. It will give you some antenna fundamentals.
humaxf1: Nice project. Try a metal dustbin next. A tip to prevent breakout on the other side of a hole, get a scrap piece of timber on the opposite side and press against the force of the drill. You'll have a burr free finish.
TREE HUGGAH: BRAVO!!!! what a great project,you should patent that idea. 73,KB3AUM
Celso Lina Da Silva: Please could send me by e mail all measures of antenna metal pot. even that was not clear to me the measure. Email: email@example.com
slamdvw: A safety tip: put a wire nut in the end of the radiator to eliminate the sharp point... and make it easier to see.
FannyAckin: does it work better with decaff
Joel Tan: For instances, if i am using a 4 copper wire as a base support for the 4 holes in the SO239 socket, what is the differences of using a 4 copper wire or a coffee can as a base support? Does the base height matters if i am constructing a 433MHz antenna. I was about to ask about the same question as the comment below.
OneStudPuppy: Awesome. This project is one of the reasons I became a ham. I like to try off the walk ideas and share the try and see idea. 73
MarvinMcGill: What kind of bit did you call that gold 1? Will it work for making a hole in the top of the van roof for a MNO mount?
Bass Assassin: Would you email me what I need to make this I want to build one email@example.com
Nolan Rollo: I didn't see anyone comment on this about the filing but the first day I used a metal file in front of an electrician I got yelled at because I pulled the file back against the metal. If you push (cut) and lift up (instead of sliding back up on the edge of the metal) you won't flatten down the teeth on the file. :)
purplemutantas: I just had another thought about cans. Coffee cans are number 10 cans. Other things come in number 10 cans. Tomatoes for example.
VE2ZAZ: Some of the baby milk formula powders still ship in metal cans.
cougarhunter33: I think Best Choice still puts coffee in metal cans. I'll have a look when I'm at the store tomorrow. KB0MLR
vetham100: i am going to use a folgers can, i want my antenna to be strong :)

Salvia greggii - perennial?
I could have sworn Salvia greggii was a perenniel here in Zone 7. I know it overwintered last year but this year it looks absolutely dead. Was I wrong or is it just slow to wake up?
Mine always come back and I have 6 in different locations in the yard. I cut them back a month ago and they are all bushy.
Try it again. I have some in part shade and some in full sun although no area is damp. The one in a pot came back too.
I'd give it a few more weeks before declaring it dead. Most of my greggiis haven't started to put out new growth yet either, and the stems are bare after all the late cold weather this winter so they do look relatively dead right now. Don't start cutting on it very hard until you see where the new growth is going to break on the stems. Some varieties are hardier than others -- this past winter will help separate them out.
I have a lot of greggii. Some are full of leaves, some half full, some look like sticks, but just showing signs of life. Just today, I did some gentle cutting back on the fine tips that were definitely brittle. I am cautious until I see more leaves, then I will trim down to the green foliage.
All of mine looked good until the last snow sat on them a few days. The snow had the same impact on my dianthus and clumping bamboo. Today, they are loosing that anemic, bleached out look and showing green again. Hang on awhile.

Cavs reportedly suspended Andrew Bynum for shooting too much in practice
02/13/2014 at 9:29 am By Anthony Ramsey
One could say that current Indiana Pacers center Andrew Bynum has had his issues with insubordinate behavior over the past couple of years. So it should come as no surprise that shooting too much in practice is what led to his suspension and eventual trade by the Cleveland Cavaliers earlier this season, according to a report from Y! Sports Adrian Wojnarowski.
"[Bynum] stopped trying on the floor, and became a disruptive presence in practices, Wojnarowski reported Wednesday. "Before Bynum was thrown out of his final practice and suspended, he was shooting the ball every time he touched it in a practice scrimmage, sources said – from whatever remote part of the court he had caught the ball."
This is the same Andrew Bynum who was benched during a game in 2011 by Mike Brown for taking a three-pointer with tons of time on the shot clock. Just so happens that Brown is also the current coach of the Cavs. Bynum also sat out the entire 2012-2013 season for alleged knee injuries while collecting checks from the Sixers, but admitted that he was out bowling during his rehab period.
In essence, the question isn't why Bynum was suspended by the Cavs, but more why they thought signing him was a good idea in the first place. Guess that explains why the Cavs have become made annual appearances in the draft lottery since LeBron left and why general manager Chris Grant lost his job earlier this month.

Aldo - A nine-year old Italian Greyhound / Pug in New Jersey
Nine-year old Aldo (born in July of 2005)weighs twenty pounds. He is housetrained to potty outside (he will scratch at his crate to indicate that he has to "go,"), but does occasionally "mark" inside. He will go quite a while without marking, and then the behavior occurs (Italian Greyhound would be glad to provide information on utilizing a belly band while working on this behavior). His owner believes that the behavior could be connected to the amount of attention he does (actually, does not) receive. When left alone, Aldo stays in his crate, tending to go there on his own even when family is home.
Aldo's people feel it would be best for Aldo to be in a home where he is able to receive more attention than he currently does.
Loose-leash training (which Italian Greyhound Place would be glad to provide information on) would be beneficial as Aldo tries to run ahead, only to be pulled back by the tight leash. Since he will "take off" if given the chance, Aldo needs to be on-leash or in a securely fenced area. Aldo has never been around cats; barks at other dogs at first, but then calms down; and leaves children alone, even if they attempt to play with him. This guy would be quite happy without children in his new home. The doorbell and someone entering the house will be responded to with barking. When someone does enter, Aldo seems anxious, although the anxiousness does dissipate - he is generally skittish around new people. As long as he can see out the window, traveling by car is fine. Aldo tends to be active for a small portion of the day and relaxes for the remainder of it.
If you are interested in this little guy who is in need of more attention, please contact Italian Greyhound Place. (Listed 11/22/14)
Spencer - A nine-year old Italian Greyhound in New York
Spencer, who is nine-years old and weighs fourteen pounds, is a delightful boy in the care of Italian Greyhound Place. Primarily surrendered due to a lack of housetraining, Spencer is doing exceptionally well here. An adopter willing and able to provide consistency and supervision is desired, especially during inclement weather.
Spencer is very sweet and loving, responsive to requests, good with other dogs, friendly with people (does not tend to be timid), travels nicely in the car, and is crate trained. He is extremely good on-leash and enjoys walks and hikes. Although he will alert to someone at the door, he stops when requested to do so.
If you are interested in providing a forever home for this gentle guy, please contact Italian Greyhound Place. Additional photos here. ______________________________________
