Timestamped Summary

00:00Welcome to the Innovation plus one channel. In this video, you'll learn how to make a powerful antenna using coaxial cable and save money.

01:45The first step is to cut some coaxial cable evenly. Then mark each of the antenna cables as 10 cm.

02:35Connect the central wire of the coaxial cable to the cable shield and ensure the connection is secure.

04:14Use two antenna socket connectors to connect the antenna branches.

05:07Create a signal amplifier using a capacitor and ferrite from an energy-saving lamp circuit.

05:47Separate the capacitor and ferrite from the circuit and use them to make an antenna booster.

06:12Remove the ferrite coils from the circuit and assemble the antenna with the signal booster.

06:35Congratulations! You have successfully made an antenna with a signal booster.
