If you need a simple, inexpensive, easy-to-deploy portable HF antenna, then this project from Mike (K8MRD) is for you.

In this video, Mike shows us how to make a basic 20 meter band dipole antenna with parts found in your junk box or from online vendors. Total cost of this antenna project is around $30 (USD).

According to Mike, no antenna analyzer is necessary to "tune" the antenna.
