Simple Ham Radio Antennas

  If you need a "stealthy" multiband HF antenna for your small urban lot, then this 5-band antenna described by Peter Waters (G3OJV) is for you. According to Peter, this simple antenna can be made from locally available materials and stands only 13 ft (3.96 m) tall.  The antenna is nearly "invisible" and fits comfortably on a small lot or in a modest garden.
