[Elecraft] Vetical Antennas

[James Duffey]

Dave - I sure don't have anything specific off the top of my head.

You might try replacing the resonator coil and the whip above that  
for 80 M with a 40 M trap and extending a wire long enough to make  
the antenna resonant on 80 M from the top of the trap horizontally to  
a tree or something. You could even droop it a bit/ This would  
improve the efficiency on 80 M a lot over the stock arrangement. If  
you had enough horizontal space, you might put a 160M trap at the end  
of that wire and add enough wire to make that resonant at 160M.

Both of these, while not great efficiency wise, would at least get  
you on the band. - Dr. Megacycle KK6MC/
