[Elecraft] Portable Antennae

[KB3OKS - Mark]

I typically use a long wire with my K1, but I still switch it out sometimes
for my first antenna -- a Buddistick vertical.

I'd just gotten licensed and wanted to get on the air quickly, as well as
having something very portable, and the Buddistick (I bought the deluxe
package) has worked well for me. I feel like it's well-constructed,
assembles and breaks down easily, and the carry bag it comes with is of
great quality.

I've done pretty well with it on some trips so far, and the base clamp has
proven to be pretty versatile. I've clamped the antenna onto the side of a
rock, on the trunk of a small tree, on the side of my car, and of course on
things like benches, railings and the like.

I've never tried the full on Buddipole dipole system, but I'd like to
someday.

73,

Mark / KB3OKS
