My favorite for quicky ops is an 84 ft wire radiator with a 17 ft 
counterpoise -- for use with a rig with a tuner. I think it's called a 
W3EMD or some such.  Likely the dimensions could be halved for use on 40 
and up.  I also like my MP-1 for quick setup and 20/15 ops.

For more serious portable ops (e.g., Field Day) a dipole is good and 
some use a loop on a 10 meter fiberblass mast.

Best link I know of for antenna stuff is:
