[Elecraft] easy simple portable antennas?

[Trevor Day]

Funnily enough, I have just been playing with a pole antenna (courtesy 
W0KPH web site) just to prove to myself that its surely not possible to 
radiate a decent signal on 20m using an antenna that is:

contained within a tube of 2 inches diameter by 14 inches long,
fed with 4 feet of coax,
and leaning against the inside of my shack window!!!

First call with the barefoot K2 produced an OM3 589/579.....

I am surprised and will try the 40m version later in the week,

Trev G3ZYY K2 #2637

PS, the antenna took around an hour to make with parts from the junk box 
and the kitchen;)

>> What multiband or single band  antennas are available to be used with the
>> K2, for quick ops?
>>
>> I know about the Walkabout and the MP-1/-2.  Are there any other antenna
>> brands cheaper than the MP-1?
>>
>> Send me some links.  While I go and surf the enet.. for more info.
