In this video I show you how to build a SIRIO Blizzard 2700 base antenna as well as the differences between the blizzard and very similar 827.
Although this was edited from a few hours worth of footage it is every bit my own experience with putting this together warts and all.
The antenna measurements i used for the SWR are probably more suited to my bandwidth needs so you may prefer extending it if 10m is not your thing.
Although far from resonant for 20m unbelievably the FTdx10 tuned it for safe use and believe it or not it actually worked quite well.
On a whole this is a superb antenna for the money with build that you would expect for twice the price.
The antenna was bought from Moonraker and the Coax was from Canny Components.
