How to make a 2 meter band tape antenna-lightweight, portable fun.
You don't have to buy an expensive, commercially-made antenna to enjoy the 2 meter amateur radio band. According to Ben Eadie (VE6SFX), all you need is some "duck" (duct) tape, some copper foil, a few connectors, and some coax feedline to join the group on your local repeater. This fun project results in a portable, effective antenna that can be used at home or in the field for POTA/SOTA operations.
