Hello all!
I liked the EPA Skunk Works name so much that I created a Skunk Works
area on my website. This page is dedicated to all those hams, including
myself, who have constructed just bad antennas over the years. I call it
my antenna graveyard site. This is where all those great antennas are
My first thought on reading 'EPA Skunk Works' was some sort of super
secret, super high-tech stuff made by the environmental protection
agency...hi hi.
I've certainly made my share of terrible antennas, but I wasn't quick
enough to take pictures of them.
My best worst antenna was a 6M
I too have no photos.
My worst was a 10/15/20 parallel dipole tacked to the wall of my
apartment in CA. It gave a very low swr on 40 meters by obviously
coupling into the building wiring system. When I sent CQ, the

Reminds me of a customer of mine, who DOES understand the social position of
being a customer.
I was driving along I-10 (I think, somewhere in the Florida Panhandle) and
saw a Blackbird parked alongside of the expressway. I immediately exited and
found the SR-71 on display at some museum.
