How to Build a ZS6BKW Antenna from Scratch – Full Step-by-Step (Part 1)

In this video I build the popular ZS6BKW antenna (an optimized variant of the classic G5RV) completely from scratch using common, inexpensive parts. We cover: • Exact parts list (450 Ω ladder line, 18 AWG wire, electric-fence insulators, waterproof box, etc.) • Cutting the dipole elements and ladder-line section • Building the center insulator / strain-relief on a cutting-board plate • Soldering and weatherproofing the connections Part 2 (coming in next video) = 1:1 balun build, hanging the antenna, and full on-air tuning with the NanoVNA. 👍 Support Budget Ham Radio https://buymeacoffee.com/budgethamradio 👉 Subscribe for more great videos -    / @budgethamradio   As an Amazon Influencer, I earn from qualifying purchases.

If you’ve ever wanted a lightweight, multi-band HF wire antenna that actually works well on 40–10 m without a tuner, this is it.
