Simple Ham Radio Antennas

  At the end of 2025, Walt (K4OGO) completed his review of the "top 5 portable HF antennas you can buy for DX." In this video, Walt tested a variety of commercially available antennas suitable for field operations.  Among the candidates were coil-loaded antennas, modified dipoles, directional beams, vertical moxons, and the popular Hexbeam. Based on actual portable use, Walt evaluates each antenna and recommends those he found valuable for his operations.
