Oh just a vertical. I do great with a $120 used 4BTV and with 2 simple added wires described on the web I have and excellently performing antenna that covers 40, 20, 17, 15, 12 and 10m with a barn storming signal using either zero radials or 2 radials. I see no difference in fact.

Remote from the shack band switching.  A good choice for limited space or DXpeditions.  Not cheap but again you get what you pay for. 73 Rich K8UV
