This is the multi band dipole I built. I calculated the lengths of wire at the center of the band, so my SWR is pretty flat there, and at most the SWR only reaches about 2.2:1. My only mistake, that I know of is 10 meters. I cut the wires a little short, and am unable to tune the lower part of the band (below 28.450 MHz). Other than that, I am pleased with my creation. It took about a day to have this made up, and it is an easy project I think anyone can tackle.
