Dipole vertical demi-onde- At a height of lambda / 4 from the ground, the radiation pattern is close to that of a vertical quarter wave on a ground plane, with a starting angle of about 15 degrees on the horizon, favorable to the DX
Effective HF Mobile Antennas- One of the problems with HF mobile operation, especially on 160, 80 or 40 Meters is antenna efficiency. The problem has been addressed in numerous publications for years
Groundplane antenna- This is the antenna I have found to be the most effective limited space radiator that I have ever used
Vertical Pancake Dipole 10-20 Meters- The antenna easily loaded 10-20 meters in the vertical configuration but it didnt do well for me on 10 and 17 meters as a horizontal dipole
