I have the internal tuner in my K3 and want to be able to put up a
wire antenna that can be assembled in minutes for both FD and public
event locations. I used to have a Mor-Gain antenna & while it wasn't
a great performer, it would have been fine for this use. Danged if I
can find it though, I must have lent it out & never got it back.
I've thought to use my spud gun to send a random wire over a tree top
& have a counterpoise wire on the ground, using the K3's ATU to match
the wire to the band. The goal would be to cover 80-20 meters. Above
20 would be nice but there's not much activity there and I'd like to
be able to demonstrate Ham Radio.
Any suggestions on something else that is convenient and works well
would be appreciated.
Thanks
